VSF has perfected their electroplating formula to perfectly mimic Rolex’s proprietary “Everose” alloy—a specific blend of gold, copper, and a touch of platinum that ensures the rose gold tone remains warm and vibrant without turning too red or brassy over time. Additionally, the day and date wheel fonts have been meticulously refined for perfect thickness and centering.

White Baguette Diamond Dial: The centerpiece of this watch is its incredibly elegant dial. The crisp white canvas provides breathtaking contrast against the warm Everose gold hands and text. Elevating the luxury to the absolute maximum, the standard indices are replaced with brilliant, custom-cut simulated baguette diamonds, meticulously set into polished 18K Everose Gold surrounds.
