Description
VSF Factory Rolex DateJust 36 Ref. 126234 – The “Black Sunburst” Edition
The undisputed leader in 36mm DateJust replication, featuring the true-clone VS3235 movement and VSF’s legendary crystal clarity.
Powered by Dandong VS3235 Super Clone
At the heart of this timepiece is the acclaimed VS3235 movement. Unlike lesser clones (like the VR or SH versions), the VS3235 is a complete architectural clone of the Rolex Caliber 3235.
- ✅ Power Reserve: Real 72 Hours (Tested). You can leave this watch off-wrist for the weekend, and it will still be running on Monday.
- ✅ Functionality: Correct anti-clockwise time setting direction (identical to Gen) and instant date change at midnight.
- ✅ Reliability: Widely regarded on forums (RWI/RepTime) as the most stable Rolex clone movement currently in production.
Technical Specifications
904L Stainless Steel
Constructed from genuine 904L Oystersteel, offering the same corrosion resistance and high-polish luster as the genuine article.
Black Sunburst Dial
Deep, rich black with sunburst finish. Features 18k white gold plated hour markers filled with blue SuperLuminova (Chromalight).
18K WG Plated Fluted
The fluted bezel is meticulously plated with 18k White Gold to achieve the correct warm yellowish-silver tone that distinguishes it from standard steel.
VSF Sapphire Crystal
VSF is famous for their crystal clarity. The “black hole” effect on the Cyclops is present, making the date wheel incredibly legible.
🏆 Why We Chose VSF for this Model?
Many clients ask: “Why not Clean Factory (CF)?”
Here is the honest truth: While Clean Factory makes an excellent case shape, VSF wins in terms of Movement Technology and Crystal Quality. The VS3235 movement offers a genuine 72-hour power reserve (compared to Clean’s ~40-48h VR3235). Furthermore, the clarity of the VSF sapphire crystal is unmatched, providing that “invisible glass” look that defines a luxury watch.
Full Disclosure: The jubilee bracelet clasp on VSF models can sometimes feel slightly stiffer than Gen out of the box, but this usually breaks in after a week of wear.

Common Questions about the DateJust 36
Q: Is this VSF version waterproof?
A: Out of the box, it is sealed for basic daily use (splash/rain proof) and VSF generally has good waterproofing on the case back and crown. However, we strongly recommend a professional pressure test before swimming.
Q: How does the VS3235 compare to the Genuine?
A: It is widely considered the best clone movement. It features the same 72-hour power reserve, the same setting direction, and many interchangeable parts with the genuine caliber.
Q: What is the biggest difference compared to Gen?
A: Under macro lens, the finishing on the hands/indexes may show minor differences (white gold plating vs solid gold), but on the wrist, the case profile and dial execution are virtually indistinguishable to the naked eye.
