VSF Edition — Solid Oystersteel Bracelet
The VSF reference 116508-0001 represents a significant structural shift in Daytona replication, utilizing a high-density weighted case to achieve a remarkable 179.2 grams. This addresses the traditional mass deficit of precious metal replicas, bridging the tactile gap between standard 904L Oystersteel and genuine 18k yellow gold. Collectors have long noted VSF’s commitment to dimensional accuracy, and this model maintains the precise case geometry expected of the modern Cosmograph.
At its core lies the celebrated Dandong 4130 clone caliber, recognized across enthusiast forums for its column-wheel architecture and vertical clutch. This movement provides a sweeping sub-seconds hand and fully operational chronograph registers, governed by a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring. Power delivery is exceptionally stable, yielding a reliable 60+ Hours (Dandong clone caliber).
The 40mm case measures a highly accurate 11.8mm in thickness, matching genuine proportions seamlessly. The crisp white dial features correct subdial snailling and precise tachymeter bezel engravings, while the heavy yellow gold electroplating demands mindful wear to maintain its factory luster.
