Description
VSF Panerai Submersible Marina Militare Carbotech PAM00961
The definitive Carbotech replica, distinguished by its accurate composite layering and the functionally correct P.9010 jumping hour caliber.
At the Core — VSF Custom Caliber P.9010
The VSF P.9010 clone movement stands apart from standard Asian 7750 modifications by replicating the genuine twin-barrel architecture and balance wheel position. Crucially, it features the exact same independent jumping hour hand function as the authentic Panerai caliber, enabling rapid date and time-zone changes without interrupting the seconds hand. The regulation mechanism allows for precise calibration, ensuring stable amplitude across its operational range. All components undergo before dispatch.
Rated at ±3–5 seconds per day.
- ✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- ✅ Complications: Independent jumping hour, date, small seconds
- ✅ Winding Direction: Bidirectional
Technical Specifications
47mm diameter with a 15.2mm thickness. The composite layering is uniquely forged, meaning no two cases share the exact same striation pattern, mirroring the genuine manufacturing process. Correct lug hole diameter ensures secure strap changes.
Features authentic sandwich dial construction with precise cutouts revealing the military green Super-LumiNova beneath. The text printing is crisp, and the OP logo depth is correct to the millimeter.
Unidirectional 120-click rotation with a firm, tactile ratchet feel. The layered grain aligns naturally with the case profile, and the luminous pearl at 12 o’clock sits flush against the insert.
Premium dust-resistant rubber that resists lint accumulation, fitted with a DLC-coated titanium trapezoidal pin buckle. The strap integrates seamlessly with the 26mm lugs.
VSF vs. the Alternatives
One recurring question: Why not King Factory?
While King Factory offers a commendable attempt at the PAM00961, the VSF edition remains superior due to its proprietary P.9010 movement with the correct jumping hour complication, whereas King relies on a decorated 7750 with a standard quick-set date. Furthermore, VSF’s Carbotech forging process yields a denser, more authentic matte finish compared to the slightly glossy resin appearance of competitors.
Full Disclosure: The rotor on the VSF P.9010 can exhibit slightly more audible bearing noise than the genuine movement in a quiet room.

Questions from Collectors
Q: Does the VSF PAM00961 use real Carbotech or just PVD-coated steel?
A: The VSF edition uses actual forged carbon composite, closely mirroring Panerai’s Carbotech. It is not coated steel; the material is lightweight, non-magnetic, and features genuine layered striations throughout the case block.
Q: How does the jumping hour function work on this P.9010 clone?
A: Like the genuine caliber, the crown’s first position jumps the hour hand forward or backward in one-hour increments without stopping the minute or seconds hands. The date changes mechanically as the hour hand passes midnight.
Q: Will genuine Panerai 26mm straps fit this VSF model?
A: Yes, the case features the correct 26mm lug width and accurate lug hole diameter. Genuine Panerai rubber, leather, or aftermarket 26mm straps will fit perfectly using the quick-release or screw-in bar system.
Q: Is the rotor noise noticeable on the VSF P.9010 movement?
A: The VSF clone movement uses ceramic ball bearings in the rotor assembly, which can be slightly more audible than the genuine Panerai caliber when the wrist is flicked sharply in a quiet environment. This is a known characteristic of this specific clone architecture.
