🚀【Time Ultra Leo】 The New Rolex Daytona Ghost (Rubber Strap): Gen vs. VS V2
Hi, I am Leo at Time Ultra.
No fluff, straight to the point. Let’s look at the highly sought-after Daytona Ghost. Left is Gen, right is the VSF V2.
⚖️** The Weight Ga**p: 26g Difference
The Numbers: Gen weighs 163.6g (18K white gold). VS weighs 136g (904L steel).
The Secret: The watch heads and rubber straps weigh virtually the same. The 26g deficit is entirely in the clasp. Steel simply can't match the density of 18K gold, so the VS clasp feels slightly lighter in hand.
📐 Case & Dimensions: Spot-On
Specs: Gen (38.7mm x 11.9mm) vs. VS (38.8mm x 12.1mm). A fraction of a millimeter difference—totally imperceptible on the wrist.
Details: The crown guards and the signature "three-dot" crown marking on the right are perfectly cloned.
🔍 Dial, Hands & Crystal: Micro-Precision
Crystal: VS perfectly replicated the new Gen-spec sharp, beveled sapphire crystal edge with a subtle top polish.
Dial: Excellent color matching on the slate grey dial. The sunburst grain is incredibly fine, and the sub-dial CD rings are sharp with great reflectivity.
Pinion & Hands: The VS V2 features the correct capped, cone-shaped 3D center pinion with a center hole, plus the flat-profile chrono hand.
🦘 Strap & Clasp: Top-Tier Comfort
Oysterflex: VS upgraded their rubber compound for V2—it’s incredibly soft, supple, and hugs the wrist just like Gen.
Clasp: All precious metal stamps (AU750, St. Bernard, scales) are deeply engraved. The only tell is that Gen gold stamps have a faint yellowish tint, while the steel ones on the right are crisp white.
⚙️** Movemen**t: Flagship Dandong 4131
Function: 100% identical operation to Gen (pull out to the first position to set time clockwise).
Feel: Winding is buttery smooth without any gritty resistance. Chronograph pushers are crisp, and the hands snap back to zero perfectly with no stutter.
📝 Quick Verdict
The only real compromise on the VS V2 is the 26g weight difference in the clasp. Beyond that, the precision on the capped pinion, beveled crystal, and dial grain makes this a near-flawless NWC (Not Worth Buying Gen) contender.
