The PAM01336 is Panerai's 42mm Luminor Due in rose gold-plated steel with a white sun-brushed dial, gold-tone hands, and vintage beige luminous cut-outs. The VSF Watch Factory version runs the Dandong P.900 movement on a black leather strap with a matching rose gold-plated tang buckle.

Dial: white sun-brushed with gold hands
The white dial has a sun-brushed finish that gives it a subtle metallic texture rather than a flat matte surface. The Arabic numerals and indices use vintage beige luminous material in a sandwich-style layout — the beige tone reads as warm "faux-patina" against the white backdrop. Gold-tone hands carry matching luminous fill. The overall color palette — white dial, gold hands, rose gold case — is the warmest configuration in the Due line.
Case: rose gold-plated Due profile
The 42mm case at roughly 10.5mm is the standard Due slim profile. The cushion body, smooth fixed bezel, and locking crown guard are all plated in 18K rose gold over 316L stainless steel. VSF's rose gold formula leans toward a warm reddish tone rather than bright yellow or brassy orange, closer to Panerai's proprietary Goldtech alloy. The finish is full mirror polish across all surfaces.
As with any plated rep, the gold layer will wear at high-contact points over time — the crown guard lever, the bezel edge, and the caseback threading are the areas to watch. This isn't specific to VSF; it's the nature of plating over steel.
Movement: Dandong P.900
Same slimmer P.900 architecture used across VSF's Due and Submersible lines. Integrated clone — no modified base movement with extra plates. Hacking seconds, smooth hand-winding, quick-set date at 3 that flips cleanly at midnight. The slim profile of the P.900 is what keeps the Due case at 10.5mm.
Strap
Black leather with a rose gold-plated tang buckle that matches the case. The black strap against the white dial and rose gold case keeps the overall look balanced — the strap recedes and lets the dial and case do the work.
Things to check in QC
The white dial should show visible sun-brushed texture, not a flat matte white. The rose gold plating should read as warm reddish-gold, not yellow or brassy. The gold-tone hands should match the case metal — a mismatch in gold tones between case and hands is an immediate tell. The crown guard lever should close with firm, even pressure. The date should sit centered and flip cleanly. At ~10.5mm, the case should read as noticeably thinner than a standard Luminor.
