Espousing the changes introduced on the steel models, high quality replica Audemars Piguet’s Selfwinding Chronograph reappeared in March 2024 with a contrasting two-tone pink gold case with a black ceramic middle and crown. Not to be confused with the 2021 pink gold and black ceramic chronograph with a gradient dial, the new chronograph reference is, in our opinion, a sharper dresser.
The two-tone pink gold and black ceramic case is designed to highlight the complex architecture of best fake Audemars Piguet watches’ hull, with its diameter of 41mm and thickness of 12.6mm. Features like the octagonal case middle, the hexagonal screws in the lugs and the Royal Oak hour and minute hands reference its famous ancestor and provide a sensation of continuity.
While the black ceramic case middle somewhat attenuates its octagonal architecture, it provides a solid contrast to the hollowed gold lug modules welded to the extra-thin polished bezel and the smooth rectangular pushers. Like all UK Swiss made copy Audemars Piguet Code 11.59, the ceramic case middle features a wide brushed band with polished bevels matching those on the lugs and bevel. The cambered profile assists ergonomics, ensuring a comfortable fit. The crown, which is also covered in black ceramic, compounds this model’s sleek, sporty attitude (somewhat at odds with the case’s scant 30m water-resistance).
The 1:1 Wholesale replica watches sticking to the two-tone black and gold palette that enhances legibility and looks devilishly handsome, the dial features the intricate black embossed pattern developed for the brand by Swiss guilloché craftsman Yann von Kaenel. Radiating from the centre and increasing in size, the concentric circles on the dial are engraved by hand, imitating the sensation of ripples on the surface of water. These circles are perforated with tiny holes to catch the light, and then the entire dial is coloured using a galvanic process to enhance the contours produced during the stamping process.
The recently introduced faceted and polished hour markers and the semi-openworked hour and minute hands benefit from the addition of luminescent material, more in tune with the chronograph’s sporty nature. The central seconds hand has retained its circular counterweight, a feature passed down from earlier references that looks antiquated in this context. As is characteristic of the brand, the indices, hands, frames of the sub-dials and applied AP logo are gold.
Aligned horizontally, the two online copy watches chronograph counters feature a framed pink gold track, snailed interiors and the new typeface featured on the tachymetre scale and small seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock. Without entering the eternal debate of whether a date window is necessary, the aperture at 4:30 cuts into the embossed pattern and has a black background.
