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.
