SBF(VS) Factory 1:1 Edition Explorer 1 Ref. 224270 40mm 904L Steel
Made with a Genuine Explorer 1 as Sample Reference!
In 2024, VS Factory proudly launched the all-new 40mm Rolex Explorer replica watch, featuring the Dandong 3230 movement. This marks the first time the VS Factory Explorer 1 uses the same 40mm case size as the genuine model, bringing it back to the mainstream size, making the diameter no longer a limiting factor.
From the exterior, the VS Factory Rolex Explorer showcases a classic and elegant dial, with the iconic "Mercedes hands" that Rolex is known for. This distinctive hand design is highly recognizable. The 3, 6, and 9 o'clock markers feature Arabic numerals, while the 12 o'clock position has an inverted triangle, all covered with Swiss-imported luminous material. Unlike the widely-used Super-LumiNova in most luxury watches, this luminous material appears white in daylight and emits a bright blue glow in the dark.
The 40mm VS Factory Rolex Explorer is powered by the Dandong 3230 automatic movement, one of the main movements used in VS Factory Rolex replicas. Compared to the previous 3130 movement, the most notable improvement in the 3230 is the power reserve, which has increased from 48 hours to 70 hours. This movement is designed to be consistent with the genuine model, featuring a custom shock absorber and a bearing-based automatic winding system.
