VSF Tungsten Gold Yacht-Master 42 Replica – 226658 Weighted (148g)

Product Overview

The Rolex Yacht-Master 42 in Yellow Gold (226658) is a statement piece. But most replicas fail instantly because they are too light. A real gold watch should feel heavy.

VS Factory has solved this with the VSF Tungsten Gold Yacht-Master 42. Using a high-density Tungsten alloy core, this watch mimics the density of precious metal, while the 5-layer 18K gold plating provides the perfect visual match.

Why This is the Best Gold Replica

1. The Weight Upgrade (148g)
Standard gold-plated replicas are made of steel and weigh only ~105g. They feel “hollow” compared to the 170g+ Genuine.
This VSF Weighted Edition hits ~148g.

• The Feeling: When you wear it, it has that luxurious “sag” on the wrist that only heavy watches have.

2. 18K Yellow Gold Color Match
Color is critical. VSF uses a specific 18K Yellow Gold Plating process that matches the slightly paler, sophisticated yellow tone of Rolex gold. It is not the “cheddar cheese yellow” found on cheap fakes.

3. VS3235 Super Clone Movement
It’s not just about looks. Inside beats the VS3235, the only movement that offers a full 72-hour power reserve and correct setting direction.

4. Matte Black Ceramic Bezel
The contrast between the polished Yellow Gold case and the matte black ceramic bezel is stunning. The bezel numerals are raised and polished to perfection.

5. FAQ 

Q: Will the gold plating fade?
A: VSF uses a thick multi-layer plating process. With normal wear, the gold color can last for years. However, like all plated jewelry, avoid scratching it deep against rough surfaces, as the Tungsten core underneath is silver-colored.

Q: Is it real gold?
A: No, it is a Tungsten-Steel alloy plated with 18K gold. Solid gold replicas would cost $8,000+. This gives you the look and weight of gold for a fraction of the price.

Q: How close is the weight to the Gen?
A: The Gen is ~175g. This VSF version is ~148g. While not 1:1 in weight, it is 40% heavier than a normal steel replica, making it the heaviest version currently available.
