VS Factory GMT-Master Pepsi

Just last week, I came across news that VS Factory would be releasing a replica of the Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi. At first, I honestly thought it was just another rumor—probably one of those attention-grabbing posts some dealers put out. But surprisingly, the watch actually dropped! I never expected VS to step into the replica GMT-Master II game, especially with Clean already dominating the market. Even if someone doesn’t go with Clean, there are still other solid options like THB and ARF. Plus, up until now, Clean was the only one using the top-tier clone 3285 movement.

But here we are—VS really launched it, and they’re using the same Dandong 3285 movement as Clean. That’s pretty wild. It’s great news for buyers though, because more competition usually means better quality overall.

Now, what I’m really curious about is how VS got access to that Dandong 3285 movement. It was exclusive to Clean before. Did something change between the two factories? Maybe there’s some kind of deal behind the scenes? I even heard that Clean might start using the Dandong 3235 soon too.
