How to quickly distinguish the difference between the VS factory Omega 8500 movement and the small factory movement

The VS factory Omega 8500 integrated movement is also very famous in the market. This is mainly because the VS factory has done a very good job in the development of this movement. It cooperated with the movement factory to customize an 8500 integrated movement that is closest to the original. This movement is called Omega’s strongest replica movement. The functions are consistent, the stability is extremely high, and the repair rate is very low. The VS factory also successfully occupied the Omega Seamaster market with this movement, including the men’s constellation. However, the market is not only the VS factory that is replicating Omega, there are other small factories, so how can we quickly distinguish the VS factory Omega 8500 movement?

Take the VS factory Omega Constellation as an example: First, we look at the VS factory constellation movement and other small factory constellation movements. There is a very obvious difference in the color of the balance wheel. The color of the VS factory constellation balance wheel is consistent with the original black, while the color of other factories is yellow, as shown in the arrow in the figure above.
Let’s look at the enlarged picture of the movement. The shock absorber of the VS factory movement is the same as the original one, which is a double T-type shock absorber, while other small factories generally use triangular shock absorbers or other shock absorbers.

Friends who know the VS factory movement should know that this VS factory movement can be regarded as a truly independent integrated movement. It is no longer a deck to improve the simulation. Every screw and gem of the movement has a real function; the position and size of the movement balance wheel are exactly the same as the original, and the blackened screws, balance wheel and barrel are restored one-to-one. Nivachoc shock absorbers (also called double T-type shock absorbers) keep the appearance details highly consistent with the original. The hour hand quick adjustment method adjusts the calendar by turning the pointer, and the function is synchronized with the original; the movement uses a double barrel, and the power storage can reach about 60 hours, the same as the original, and the stability of the movement is very good.
