Description
Rolex DateJust 41 Ref. 126331 “Chocolate” – ARF Super Clone
The definitive Two-Tone Everose Gold replica, featuring the legendary ARF bracelet finish and VR3235 movement.
Powered by Clone 3235 Movement
Inside this chassis beats the VR3235 Super Clone movement. Unlike older ETA-based modifications, this movement is built from the ground up to replicate the Rolex architecture, including the correct time-setting direction and instant date change.
- ✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 48-70 hours (Real-world usage may vary vs. genuine 70h).
- ✅ Functionality: Instant midnight date change and clockwise time setting (Gen-spec).
- ✅ Reliability: High beat 28,800 VPH providing a smooth sweeping seconds hand.
Technical Specifications
904L Steel & Everose Plating
Features a solid 904L stainless steel core with 18K Everose Gold plating (5 mils thick) on the center links and bezel. The tone is perfectly calibrated to match Rolex’s copper-infused gold alloy.
Sunburst Chocolate Dial
The “Chocolate” sunburst finish is notoriously difficult to replicate. ARF achieves the correct warm brown hue that shifts dynamically under light, paired with PVD Rose Gold hour markers with Chromalight lume.
Fluted Rose Gold
Sharp, crisp fluting that reflects light beautifully. The plating is PVD bonded for durability against fading.
The “ARF Feel”
Famous for their bracelet work, this Jubilee bracelet feels incredibly smooth. The edges are refined to remove “sharpness,” providing a comfort level often superior to other factories.
🏆 Why We Chose ARF for this Model?
Many clients ask: “Why not VSF or Clean Factory?”
Here is the honest truth: While VSF offers a slightly superior crystal and movement reserve, ARF wins in terms of Case Geometry and Bracelet Finishing. For a DateJust on a Jubilee bracelet, the tactile feel of the metal on the wrist is paramount. ARF’s steel and gold-plating work is widely considered the smoothest and most substantial in the industry.
Full Disclosure: The VR3235 rotor can be slightly audible in a completely silent room compared to the genuine movement, but this is a standard characteristic of all 3235 clones.

Common Questions about the DateJust 41
Q: Is the Rose Gold plating durable?
A: Yes, ARF uses a thick PVD plating method. With normal care (avoiding harsh chemicals or deep scratches), the gold tone remains stable for years. It matches the Gen Everose color very closely.
Q: How does the VR3235 movement compare to the Genuine?
A: It features the same time-setting logic (rotating crown clockwise advances hands). It is currently one of the most stable clone movements available, offering good power reserve and shock resistance.
Q: What is the biggest difference compared to Gen?
A: Under macro lens, the weight of the font on the date wheel may vary slightly from the current year’s Gen production, but on the wrist, it is virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye.
