Swiss replica Audemars Piguet’s iconic Royal Oak just got the Cookie Monster blue treatment.
1:1 fake Audemars Piguet, or “AP” or “Audemars” as rappers call it, recently unveiled its Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar watch dripped out entirely in blue ceramic material.
The monochromatic cheap replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch also marks AP’s first-ever timepiece to receive a blue ceramic case and bracelet, pleasing chronograph connoisseurs who appreciate Audemars watches beyond their visual appeal. The 41mm case’s sapphire crystals and white-gold hour ticks on the dial mingle with the top copy watch’s royal hue, exuding feels of stars dancing in the night sky. Indeed, there aren’t any clouds in these nighttime stones (word to Jay-Z’s intro on “Umbrella”).
Adding to the perfect replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak‘s celestial vibe, the watch also totes an astrological moon indicator — a plus for cosmic enthusiasts looking to up their wrist game — in addition to the day, date, and month subdials.
The Royal Oak timepiece naturally boasts luxury super clone Audemars Piguet’s timeless craftsmanship, evident in the titanium clasp bracelet and the Swiss watch manufacturer’s iconic “Grande Tapisserie” square pattern on the dial.
The latest blue CA Audemars Piguet replica for sale isn’t the first to receive a mono-material makeover. Remember the $78k Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar in full titanium?
The model also did the whole ceramic thing with its white and black ceramic renditions in 2017 and 2019, respectively.
The blue Swiss movement copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar — available for purchase via an appointment with AP — is a simply another tasteful addition to high quality fake Audemars Piguet’s timeless collection, sealing the company’s usual bells and whistles with an interstellar stellar finish.
Stone dials are about as 1970s as you can get. And as a self-professed 1970s nostalgia freak, theoretically, this means I should be uncompromisingly devoted to the relatively recently-released 37mm turquoise dial Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica for sale.
Sure, part of me is enamored. But I have some housekeeping/general observations before I run through an 800-word love letter to this cheap fake Audemars Piguet CA.
Firstly, I have noticed that stone dials are weirdly a political unifier amongst watch enthusiasts – a unique middle ground for men and women to confer without some uncalled-for battle of the sexes debate/discourse. We can all admire a pretty stone (and lord knows I do). It’s as if these high quality super clone watches are akin to souvenirs from a years-past trip to the Natural History Museum – the London one – duh – with a parent. Or a forgotten lesson in elementary school, where everybody got to pass around little lumps of quartz, tiger’s eye, aventurine, obsidian, etc., in the hopes of learning the basics of mineral science. I don’t know if this is a hot take, but stone dials, unlike gemstones, are neutral territory. They are decorative, they are not for everybody, but they are seemingly far from polarizing.
Stone dials are more quirky than gem-setting on luxury replica Audemars Piguet watches. Stone dials are earthy and bohemian. They loosely signify hippie culture (a culture which has been fetishized and annihilated to such a degree that I’m not sure this point remains relevant anymore but let’s stick with it for now as I take us back to the 1970s). This is hippie culture in the most surface sense; less revolutionary dropouts from Haight-Ashbury make it to communal life in rural America and more holding multiple minerals in each hand as you make a journey across the PCH to the Esalen Institute.
And, as we know, aaa quality fake watches are often a reflection of the broader zeitgeist – the cultural climate being referenced here is our modern-day obsession with mid-century style: fashion, furniture, art… and copy watches. As tempting as it is for me to fall into my usual bourgeois bohemian fantasy about Loulou de Falaise wearing flowy Yves Saint Laurent caftans, armfuls of wooden bangles, and strand upon strand of semi-precious stone beads, I am not her, and it is 2023, not 1973. So I’ll channel my fantasy into something like a modern stone dial watch (and maybe throw on a single string of coral beads for good measure, because why not).
But here’s the really tricky part. Because as much as I want to put on the turquoise dial Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica online and slip into 1970s Saint Laurent muse cosplay, stone dials actually turn my levels of discernment up by about 10 notches. There is a lot more to these dials than just a pretty or unusual color and texture. The lapidary has to be immaculate in order for the dial to look refined, evenly saturated in color with just the right amount of flaws, and balanced in relation to its case and bracelet. This particular turquoise dial copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, like others in its category, comes with a healthy price tag ($61,000 to be precise) – so I do not take the quality of the stone or cutting technique lightly.
And while this Swiss movement fake Audemars Piguet CA did pass the stop-everything-you-are-doing-and-revel-in-the-beauty-of-this-watch-on-social-media test when it came out in February of this year, seeing lapidary up close is very different. It’s hard to pass judgment when you cannot see every single dial in the full run. They will all be cut differently, the veins in the Mexican turquoise will all form different patterns – it’s the luck of the draw.
The most striking quality, aside from the obvious best quality replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak design and perfect metalwork, is the contrast in color between the 18k yellow gold and bright turquoise stone. Gold and blue is a perfect combination in my mind; very Mediterranean, very regal, very pharaohs in Egypt, but also very ’70s. This is not Tiffany blue; it’s a different thing. The only point of comparison I would maybe deem acceptable is the modern Rolex Day-Date with its own turquoise dial (not for me, though, thanks).
The simplicity and size of this watch work harmoniously. It would have been interesting to see this without the date window and seconds hand, maybe even without applied hour markers for a super clean and less watchy look, but for now, I’ll take her as she is.
At 37mm x 9.3mm, it’s relatively compact – but cheap fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks fit larger than most, so if you’ve never tried one on before, know that this usually tends to wear like a 39mm (they made me say this). The watch comes equipped with a self-winding Caliber 5900, which displays hours, minutes, center seconds, and date. And has a power reserve of 60 hours and water resistance of 50m.
I will not be blindly brainwashed into liking anything. Certainly not when the product in question is a true Venn diagram of all my watch interests: yellow gold, 1970s, and colorful stones. Swiss made replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak or not, this yellow gold, turquoise dial watch hit all the notes I was after. You know it’s love when there are over 50 pictures in the camera roll. Now make her in 34mm, and you might have yourself a customer (insert joke about waiting list here).
