Description
MKS Factory Vacheron Constantin Fiftysix Complete Calendar 4000E/000R-B065
A technically ambitious release that successfully replicates the intricate calendar functions and ultra-thin profile of the genuine 2460 Q/1 caliber.
Powered by Caliber 2460 Q/1 Clone
The MKS development team spent 18 months engineering this movement to ensure the balance wheel position and quick-adjust pushers align perfectly with the genuine architecture. The calendar pointer is correctly positioned beneath the hour hand, a detail often overlooked in lesser complete calendar replicas. The moon phase complication operates alongside the day and month discs, driven by a reliable base mechanism heavily modified for this specific sector dial layout.
Regulated to standard clone tolerances, this modified base movement typically yields ±10–15 seconds per day, depending on the resting position and active winding habits.
- ✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- ✅ Complications: Day, Month, Pointer Date, Moon Phase
- ✅ Winding Direction: Unidirectional
Technical Specifications
Measuring 40mm across and precisely 10.6mm thick, the case balances polished lugs with a brushed mid-case. The 74.8g weight reflects the stainless steel core construction rather than solid 18k gold.
Features twin rectangular apertures at 12 o’clock and a detailed moon phase at 6 o’clock. The applied Arabic numerals and bar markers are cleanly finished, complementing the retro sector-dial layout.
The rose gold tone is carefully color-matched to Vacheron’s proprietary 18k pink gold alloy (4N), offering a warm, vintage aesthetic without harsh brassy undertones.
The checkered brown leather pairs seamlessly with the dial, secured by a well-machined folding clasp shaped like a half Maltese cross with crisp internal engravings.
Why MKS Factory for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: “Why not ZF?”
While ZF produces excellent time-only Fiftysix models, MKS Factory has invested heavily in the Complete Calendar complication. The MKS version correctly implements the flush case-band pushers for calendar adjustments, whereas earlier market attempts relied on recessed pushers or crown-only adjustments. Furthermore, achieving the ultra-thin 10.6mm case profile with this level of mechanical complexity is a distinct MKS advantage.
Full Disclosure: Due to the stainless steel base, the watch weighs significantly less (74.8g) than the solid 18k gold genuine piece. Additionally, the moon phase disc lacks the exact platinum metallic sheen found on the authentic model.

Collector Q&A
Q: Are the case-band pushers functional on this MKSF replica?
A: Yes. MKS Factory has fully replicated the quick-set functionality. The flush pushers on the side of the case actively advance the day, month, date, and moon phase, operating identically to the genuine Caliber 2460 Q/1.
Q: Does the pointer date hand sit in the correct position?
A: Yes. A major technical achievement of this specific MKS release is that the calendar pointer hand is correctly positioned underneath the hour hand, matching the genuine hand-stack sequence perfectly.
Q: Is the moon phase a true 29.5-day cycle or just a day/night indicator?
A: It functions as a monthly moon phase rather than a simple 24-hour day/night indicator. It rotates gradually over the course of the month, driven by the underlying calendar module.
Q: What is the main tell or flaw on this rose gold Fiftysix model?
A: The primary tell is the weight. Because the case is rose gold-plated stainless steel rather than solid 18k pink gold, it weighs 74.8 grams—noticeably lighter than the genuine watch. Additionally, the platinum moon on the phase disc lacks the exact metallic depth of the authentic piece.
