About this reference
Rolex Day-Date
The reference
This listing is for the VS Factory 1:1 Super Clone of the Rolex Day-Date 40, reference 228238, configured in yellow gold with a green Roman dial. Within the VS Factory range, the Day-Date 40 occupies a specific position: it is a full-size, precious-metal model that demands consistent finishing across a large surface area, and VSF approaches it as such. The reference 228238 is the modern 40mm Day-Date, a watch that in the original catalog sits at the top of the Rolex line, and this release reproduces that reference rather than a generic Day-Date. The full source name for this version is VS Factory Rolex Day-Date 40 Yellow Gold Green Roman Dial (228238) V2 1:1 Super Clone - DD3255 Movement. The V2 designation indicates this is the second iteration of the build in this factory's line, which typically means refinements carried over from earlier production.
Build and movement
The case and bracelet are executed in yellow gold, matching the material called for by reference 228238. For a buyer, material matters here for two reasons: yellow gold defines the weight, warmth of tone, and the way light moves across the polished and brushed surfaces, and it also dictates how the watch reads on the wrist compared to steel or two-tone equivalents. The 40mm sizing places it in the contemporary Day-Date range, giving the dial and the President-style bracelet the proportions associated with that reference. Inside, the watch runs the DD3255 movement. The movement is central to how the Day-Date functions, since this model line carries both a day display and a date, and the DD3255 is the caliber specified for this build. Buyers familiar with the reference will look at the movement as the mechanism that drives those displays, and the DD3255 is the unit used here.
What sets this version apart
What separates this version from other Day-Date 40 configurations is the dial: green with Roman numerals. Green dials are a narrower offering than the more common neutral tones, and Roman numerals change the character of the dial considerably compared to baton or diamond markers. Roman numerals introduce a classical, formal look with distinct hour markers, while the green surface gives the watch a color that shifts under different lighting. For a collector choosing between Day-Date variants, this combination is the deciding factor: it is the same 228238 platform and the same yellow gold case, but the dial is what makes this particular piece stand out in a collection. The dial also determines legibility and how the yellow gold case and bracelet are visually balanced, since a darker or more saturated dial changes how the metal reads on the wrist.
Ordering and QC
On the ordering side, the process is straightforward. Before the watch is shipped, real photographs and a QC video of the exact watch you will receive are provided, so you can review the specific piece rather than a stock image. That step lets you examine the dial, case, bracelet, and markings on the actual unit prior to dispatch. If you have questions about the reference, the movement, or the dial configuration, ask before ordering so the details are clear.
Crystal
VSF is known in the community for the clarity of its sapphire crystal; this build uses an anti-reflective coated crystal with the 'black hole' effect at the date cyclops.
