The Code 11.59 collection from CA perfect replica Audemars Piguet watches have been a head-scratcher for a lot of people. But, now in its sixth year, it seems the times have begun to catch up with its forward-thinking approach. It’s a watch that knows exactly which rules to break and which to respect, resulting in a neo-traditional archetype that’s unique without being alienating. This new model with its Tuscany Blue dial leans even harder into the fusion confusion by combining a sportier aesthetic with a bejewelled dial, as part of the brand’s First Semester 2025 set of novelties.

Being constructed from a mixture of 18k white gold and ceramic sections, it’s simultaneously daring you to scratch it an insisting on being respected.

Dubbed Tuscany Blue, the new Code 11.59’s dial is an exuberant shade that’s much more exciting than classical navies but still timeless, and not as showy as some of the modern pastels. The UK 1:1 wholesake copy watches speckled texture lends it a lot of depth without being distracting, as the dial’s layout already has a fair bit going on. There are the three subdials counting 12 hours, 30 minutes, and 60 running seconds, with clean printing for ease of use.

From the high quality replica Audemars Piguet watches sapphire display caseback you can peer in at the Audemars Piguet calibre 4409. It’s a manufacture movement with automatic winding, a flyback chronograph that lets you restart the timer instantly, 70 hours of power reserve, and a full 4Hz beat rate for a smooth sweep of the seconds hand.
