Anthony Davis and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph Frosted Gold Purple Watch Replica

Anthony Davis and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph Frosted Gold Purple Watch Replica


The new NBA season has kicked off on Christmas Eve eve December 23rd. Throughout the off-season of this particular season, deals are constantly made and news of contract renewals are also constant, among which the most fans a good wait is, the defending champion team Los Angeles Lakers' thick brow Anthony Davis, from the news released in November to jump out of the contract and then to the official announcement of the contract renewal, a total of nineteen days for many fans to wait. Today to introduce you to this champion's choice of watch, this Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Frosted Gold Selfwinding Chronograph watch replica 26331BC.GG.1224BC.01 launched at the SIHH Geneva Watch Fair 2019 is the collection of the Thick Brow, the watch uses Audemars Piguet's exclusive frosty gold process to make the watch.

This ancient technique, also known as whacking, originates from a 17-year collaboration with Florentine jewelry designer Carolina Bucci. Before being assembled, the frost gold case is struck with a tool with a diamond at the top, creating extremely fine notches in the surface that allow it to take on a diamond-like sparkle. The frosted gold work, combined with the special purple dial of the watch, makes for an overall subtle visual effect. The watch is available in a limited edition of 200 pieces.

The Case

Almost the entire surface of this Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph replica and integrated bracelet are covered in frosted gold, save for the polished flanks of the bezel, the sides of the bracelet and the chronograph pushers and crown. Admittedly, the frosty surface emits a dull, matte sparkle (is that possible?) without the dazzle of diamonds. However, on this particular model, the slightly gritty grey surface suggests concrete, very in tune with the original industrial aesthetics of the 1972 model.

Although it grew in size to 41mm during its 2012 makeover, the balance between the diameter and thickness (11mm) is perfect – in fact, it looks sleeker than the 39mm and is more balanced on the wrist. The all-important factor of proportion has been achieved and the watch feels absolutely right.

The Dial

Like all replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak models from 2017 forward, the dial is decorated with a guilloché “Grande Tapisserie” (chequerboard) pattern and features the same layout of the chronograph functions as the 2017 model with two horizontal rhodium-toned counters at 3 and 9 o’clock for elapsed times and a smaller counter above the 6 o’clock marker for the running seconds. The white gold applied hour markers and the hands are identical to the 2017 model with luminescent coating and the date window perched between 4 and 5 o’clock has a purple background to match the dial.


However, the novelty here is the colour of the dial. It’s purple, unequivocally purple, well “plum purple” if you want to be exact, the kind of purple you might have worn on your 1970s bell-bottoms. It might not be the first purple dial in the Royal Oak line-up, but it is the first time Audemars Piguet mixes frosted gold armour with a purple dial.


The Movement

Turning over the watch reveals a sealed caseback but, rest assured, Audemars Piguet’s in-house calibre 2385 beats below cover – note that this movement is based on the architecture of the Frédéric Piguet 1185. An automatic, integrated column-wheel chronograph with tri-compax layout, the movement beats a frequency of 21,600vph/3Hz and provides a power reserve of 40 hours for the chronograph, hours, minutes, small seconds and date functions.

Introducing the AUDEMARS PIGUET Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked Ceramic 41mm Replica

Introducing the AUDEMARS PIGUET Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked Ceramic 41mm Replica


December 2020 - The Swiss fine watchmaking brand AUDEMARS PIGUET presents the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked Ceramic 41mm watch replica 15416CE.OO.1225CE.01 with a dial design full of subtle visual contrasts. For the first time, the Royal Oak Double Oscillator Skeleton features a case and bracelet in black ceramic, hand-finished with the signature Audemars Piguet aesthetic of alternating satin-brushed and polished finishes.


The Case & Dial

The new AP Royal Oak watch replica itself retains most elements of previous replica Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked models. What we’re looking at today is mostly an evolution of materials and colours. As such, the case still measures 41mm in diameter and features the emblematic octagonal bezel with eight gold screws on top. It has a relatively thin profile of 9.7mm, a hexagonal screw-lock crown and alternation of brushed surfaces and polished accents – features that are kept, despite the new material. The main update concerns the use of black ceramic, a lightweight and ultra-resistant material, for both the case, the bezel, the crown and the bracelet. The caseback is made of titanium.

As we’ve explained on several occasions, the use of ceramic for the replica AP Royal Oak is not a simple task. In order to retain the exact same shape and finishing as a stainless steel or solid gold model, the ceramic Royal Oak watches require an impressive amount of time to machine and hand-finish the parts – the bracelet alone requires 30 hours of finishing, which is five times longer than for the steel version. But clearly, the result is stunning. As you can see in the photos, the black ceramic material is also rather playful depending on the light conditions, reflecting or absorbing ambient light.

Some evolutions are also noticeable on the dial side. While the movement, its decoration and the visible double balance wheel module are retained, the inner flange with a minute track is now treated in black to match the case. The hands and the applied indexes are still executed in 18k pink gold and feature some luminescent material. The complexity of this AP Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked replica doesn’t hide in the display of this classic 3-hand watch. The star of the show is, without a doubt, the complex regulating organ, highlighted between 6 and 9 o’clock, with its gold bridge and balances, contrasting with the dark grey movement – which, as you can see, is superbly decorated by hand, with sharp inward angles and hand-polished chamfers (among other decorations).


The Movement

The principle of the Double Balance Wheel replica 15416CE.OO.1225CE.01, as we explained in this in-depth video with the CEO of Audemars Piguet, François-Henry Bennahmias, is all about chronometric performance. Placing this double balance wheel device on a classic calibre 3120 allows its benefits to be measured, in comparison to a traditional single balance movement. The idea was to exploit the advantages of having two balance springs, without the issues that come with them. Having a double spring increases precision. However, this construction (when you have two hairsprings on the same side of a single balance) is known to be difficult to adjust and does create extra friction on the balance staff. Taking two springs made of the same alloy and setting them 180° apart cancels this completely, which benefits the overall chronometric performance of the watch.

The rest of the movement, taking aside the skeletonization process and the double balance construction, is close to a classic Calibre 3120, which has been the brand’s core automatic movement for several years. The Calibre 3132 you see here runs at a frequency of 3Hz with a power reserve of 45 hours – shorter than the 3120, as the double balance consumes more energy. 

The watch’s titanium caseback presents the engraving: “Royal Oak Double Balancier” and, through the transparent sapphire crystal, showcases the back of the movement and its 22-carat pink gold oscillating.
