Okay, this choice is from left field, but please hear me out. I purchased the copy watch above from Wind Vintage earlier this year, and it’s one that fools the eyes. It’s only 32mm wide, but with chunky lugs and an 18mm gap, the perfect replica Audemars Piguet UK with caliber 2003 looks and feels much larger. Now, if this is to qualify for the best watches under €5,000, I am not suggesting a bracelet like mine. That Gay Frères gem brings us above the threshold, but this luxury fake Audemars Piguet looks sexy on a strap too.

For years, the Ultra-Thin from best 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet was the primary seller in the lineup alongside the Royal Oak. It was made for decades. It’s a classic dress watch and certainly doesn’t offer good water resistance or ruggedness. However, it’s classy and works beautifully under a long-sleeved shirt. If you’re patient, you can find 18K white or yellow gold models from the ’50s and ’60s for less than €3,000. That’s a heck of a deal for an aaa quality fake Audemars Piguet.
