After successfully developing the integrated 3235 movement, VS Factory began focusing on the Rolex Submariner series, starting with the well-known black and green Submariners, followed by the two-tone Submariner, and now the 41mm blue Submariner, all equipped with the 3235 integrated movement, providing a 72-hour power reserve! The watch features a 904L steel case and bracelet, with exceptional craftsmanship, especially the blue dial that matches the genuine article. Below is a detailed review of this watch.

The VS Factory blue Submariner (126619LB) still uses the bezel from C Factory, considered the best blue ceramic bezel on the market, unlike the bright blue bezels from smaller factories. The C bezel boasts better craftsmanship, being harder, more corrosion-resistant, fingerprint-resistant, and scratch-resistant. The bezel's luminescent dot at the 12 o'clock position ensures clear reading even at night.

The toothed design of the bezel allows for easy operation, even when wearing gloves or underwater.

The laser-engraved Rolex crown at the 6 o'clock position is well-executed, with precise placement. The side features fine polishing, and the thickness is on par with the genuine article, thanks to the integrated movement without any excess bridges.

The crown and surrounding guards on the old Submariner models felt more prominent, but on the 126619LB, both the crown and guards are more recessed into the case, fitting better into the side profile.

The watch includes the oyster clasp with safety lock and the Glidelock system, allowing for easy extension without tools, providing a stable and comfortable fit even when worn over a wetsuit. The clasp features all the necessary precious metal markings, engraved with high precision for an authentic look.

The movement inside is the VS Factory’s self-developed 3235, the closest version to the genuine article. It boasts intricate internal finishing and maintains an accuracy of within +/- five seconds per day. It's important to note that the balance wheel lift angle of the VS Factory’s 3235 movement is 59 degrees, just like the genuine article, not the common 52 degrees seen in other market versions. When using a timegrapher, ensure the lift angle is set to 59 degrees for accurate timekeeping and amplitude readings above 270. If set to 52 degrees, the amplitude of the genuine VS Factory 3235 movement will not exceed 270 degrees when fully wound.
