Description
VSF Omega Constellation 41mm Rhodium-Grey
VSF achieves the most accurate case integration and dial texture currently available for the modern 41mm Constellation family.
Powered by VSF Custom Calibre 8900
The VSF 8900 is widely recognized for its functional jumping hour hand, a mechanical rarity in standard replicas that significantly enhances the user experience when traveling across time zones. The movement features a blackened double-T balance wheel designed to emulate the genuine METAS certified Co-Axial caliber. Decorative bridges with arabesque C么tes de Gen猫ve are visible through the expansive 30mm exhibition caseback, offering an impressive visual approximation of Omega��s in-house architecture.
VSF 8900 clone calibers: typically 卤5��8 s/day when fully wound and resting dial-up.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Independent jumping hour hand, sweeping seconds, date display
- �� Winding Direction: Bidirectional automatic
Technical Specifications
41mm diameter with a highly complex integrated lug structure, featuring the signature polished claws (griffes) gripping the brushed case sides with tight tolerances.
Exhibits the correct sun-brushed texture radiating from the star applique, with faceted indices that align precisely with the bezel numerals and crisp text printing.
Features accurate platinum electroplated Roman numerals, offering the correct muted reflectivity rather than a historically inaccurate high-gloss paint finish.
Integrated seamlessly into the case with a structured profile, secured by a well-machined single-fold deployment clasp with deep Omega engravings.
Why VSF for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: ��Why not ORF?��
While ORF produces a commendable Constellation, the VSF iteration offers superior finishing on the movement bridges and a more reliable jumping hour mechanism. The VSF dial also captures the subtle metallic sheen of the rhodium-grey tone more accurately under natural light, avoiding the overly flat matte appearance seen on earlier batches from competing factories.
Full Disclosure: The rotor bearing on the VSF 8900 can be marginally louder than the genuine caliber in a quiet room, though this is easily mitigated with a light application of Moebius 9010 oil by a watchsmith.

Collector Q&A
Q: Does the jumping hour hand function exactly like the genuine Omega 8900?
A: Yes, the VSF Calibre 8900 clone features a true independent jumping hour hand, allowing you to adjust the hour forward or backward in one-hour increments without stopping the seconds hand or disturbing the minute setting.
Q: Are the Roman numerals on the bezel simply painted?
A: No, VSF uses a platinum electroplating process for the bezel numerals, replicating the genuine manufacturing technique to ensure the correct metallic luster and depth.
Q: Can I swap the VSF rubber strap for a genuine Omega Constellation bracelet?
A: The lug geometry and integration points on the VSF 41mm case are highly accurate, meaning genuine Omega leather or steel Constellation straps designed for the 41mm case will fit with minimal to no modification.
Q: What is the most noticeable difference between this VSF model and the retail version?
A: Under strict loupe inspection, the blackened double-T balance wheel is a cosmetic cover over a traditional regulating organ, lacking the true free-sprung silicon architecture of the genuine METAS-certified Co-Axial escapement.
