These two new arrivals from VS Factory are both Luminor GMT models, featuring the P.900 movement. One has a black dial (PAM 1365), while the other sports a white dial (PAM 1367). Although these models may not appeal to everyone, they might resonate more with Italians due to the use of the Italian word “BiTempo,” which I believe means GMT—am I correct? Personally, I prefer the black dial version.
VS Factory has produced a wide range of replicas, including models from Rolex, Panerai, and Omega, whereas Clean has only introduced one new model in recent months—the Explorer II. When it comes to sales between VS and Clean, it’s difficult to determine who has the upper hand. However, I believe Clean’s greater popularity with Rolex models might give them an edge in terms of revenue.
Both the PAM 1365 and PAM 1367 are 40mm in diameter, and their P.900 movements can be viewed through the crystal case back. VS Factory developed the P.900 movement based on the P.9000, and they were the first to create a super clone of the P series movement for Panerai replicas. If you want to verify whether a Panerai is made by VS, there’s a simple test: Loosen the crown lever and pull the crown out to the first position. When you rotate the crown, you’ll notice that only the hour hand moves, and the date changes after the hour hand completes two full rotations. This feature is unique to the super clone P series movement by VS. Pulling the crown out to the second position allows you to adjust the time, with the hour, minute, and GMT hands all moving together.
The lume on the dial is very strong, closely resembling that of genuine Panerai models. VS Factory uses a sandwich dial structure for both replicas, which enhances the durability of the green lume. Additionally, the GMT hand has a blue lume at the tip.
