VS Factory Rolex Datejust 41 126334 Review

A Closer Look at the New Wave Dial Version

Today I want to talk about one of the newest VS Factory Datejust releases, the Rolex Datejust 41mm 126334 with the new wave-pattern dial.

This new dial has quickly become one of the most eye-catching Datejust options available. Some people call it a checker texture, while others describe it as a wave dial because of the flowing pattern across the surface. Either way, it gives the watch a much stronger visual presence than the standard sunburst dial, while still keeping the classic Datejust identity intact.

What makes this version special is the way VS Factory combines the wave texture with a reflective sunray effect underneath. Under strong lighting, the dial shows much more depth than a flat dial, and the changing light really brings out the pattern.

The blue version looks slightly darker in hand than it may appear under intense light, while the green tone has a fresh mint-like feel. The blue color itself is close to the standard blue Datejust dial, but the added wave texture makes it look more layered and more refined on the wrist. If you like Datejust models with a little more personality, this is definitely one of the more attractive recent releases.

Why This New Datejust Stands Out

When it comes to the Datejust lineup, VS Factory may not win every single category against every competitor, but it clearly has some very strong advantages.

The first is variety. VS has built one of the most complete Datejust collections on the market, with a wide range of dial colors and configurations. For buyers who care about having more choices, this is one of the biggest reasons VS remains so popular.

The second is the movement. This model uses the Dandong 3235 movement, which is one of the strongest points of the current VS Datejust series. It offers an impressive power reserve of around 70 hours, and from market feedback, it is also known for very solid stability and a low repair rate. Among modern clone movements used in Rolex replicas, the 3235 from VS is still considered one of the most respected options.

Dial Details and Finishing

Looking closer at the watch, the dial furniture is well executed.

The hands have a full and solid appearance, and the center pinion is finished in a clean, correct-looking way. The date sits nicely in the window, and the print on the dial is sharp and properly proportioned. The Rolex crown logo and the text layout are also handled well, giving the watch a balanced and convincing overall look.

This is exactly the kind of detail that matters on a Datejust, because it is such a clean and familiar design. Small mistakes become very obvious on this model, so good dial printing and proper hand finishing make a real difference here.

Fluted Bezel and Bracelet

The fluted bezel is another highlight on this watch.

On the genuine watch, the bezel is made from white gold. On the VS version, while it is still steel underneath, the factory uses a bright finishing process to recreate that white-gold look. Under direct light, the bezel reflects very strongly and gives the watch the crisp sparkle that people expect from a Datejust.

For the bracelet, the watch comes with the classic Jubilee bracelet, which suits the Datejust perfectly and gives it that dressy, iconic profile. If you prefer a cleaner and sportier feel, an Oyster bracelet option is also available. The bracelet finishing and overall hand feel are both very good, and the watch feels solid and comfortable in hand.

41mm vs 36mm

In the original presentation, both the 41mm and 36mm versions were shown together for a quick size comparison.

If you prefer a stronger wrist presence and a more modern look, the 41mm version is the more direct choice. If you want something more traditional and compact, the 36mm still has that classic Datejust proportion. The good thing is that VS is now offering this dial style across different sizes, which gives buyers more flexibility depending on wrist size and personal taste.

VS Factory vs Clean Factory

At the moment, the biggest competitor to VS in the Datejust category is still Clean Factory.

Clean uses a Shanghai 3235 movement, and while its power reserve is generally a bit weaker than the VS Dandong 3235, Clean is also very strong overall and does some details extremely well. That is why the market is still split between VS supporters and Clean supporters.

In reality, both factories are already producing very strong Datejust replicas, and both are easy recommendations depending on what you personally value more. If your priority is movement performance and a broad range of styles, VS remains a very attractive choice.

Final Thoughts

For me, this new VS Factory Rolex Datejust 41 126334 wave-dial version is one of the more interesting recent Datejust releases.

It keeps the clean and versatile character of the Datejust, but adds more texture, more light play, and more personality on the wrist. The dial colors are attractive, the bezel has strong visual brightness, the Jubilee bracelet still works beautifully with the case, and the Dandong 3235 movement remains one of the core reasons many buyers continue to trust VS Factory.

If you want a Datejust that feels familiar but not boring, this is a version well worth considering.
