A picture says a thousand words and, thankfully, Audemars Piguet and 1017 ALYX 9SM Replica helped explain it with this telling picture just above. It is the sort of person who wears a body-tight, white-mesh long sleeve, sits in cheap plastic garden furniture with a solid-gold watch on the wrist, has an analog picture taken of the act, has that photo developed on paper, and then takes a digital photo of that analog photo. That is what you are looking at just above, and if it resonates with you, the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 1017 ALYX 9SM Matthew Williams designer watches might, too.
The Royal Oak is one of the most powerful designs in the entire history of horology, one that has carried Audemars Piguet as a brand on its shoulders while all other collections — Millenary, Edward Piguet, Jules Audemars — have died off its side, the Cheap Audemars Piguet Replica having yet to prove it can snatch some of the limelight from this 1972 classic.
In its own right, the Royal Oak Offshore has become an absolute rockstar among watches: It successfully preceded the big-watch trend by becoming the big, bulky, and brash sibling of the slim Royal Oak. Although immensely heavy and somewhat ungainly when rendered in anything denser than titanium, it is one bewitchingly cool object irrespective of the metal it is made from.
Five new watches make up the Audemars Piguet Replica Watches China collaboration: The Audemars Piguet 1017 ALYX 9SM Royal Oak Selfwinding 37mm (15550BA.OO.1356BA.02) comes in 18k yellow gold, the 1017 ALYX 9SM Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 41mm.
All watches feature the latest-generation Audemars Piguet movements, the Royal Oak Selfwinding 37mm sports Calibre 5909, a barely 4mm thick movement with 4Hz frequency and 60 hours of power reserve, the Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 41mm is powered by Calibre 4409. The Royal Oak Offshore models are equipped with Calibre 4404 offering the same functions as 4409 with the addition of a date and 1.1mm of extra thickness.
The good news is that the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding 37mm Replica is just 9.1mm thick all cased up, making for an impressively thin and wearable watch even in all-gold. The 41mm wide chronograph version is 12.4mm thick — a hair thicker than a Rolex Daytona in gold — while the real heavy-hitters are the gargantuan Royal Oak Offshore 42mm pieces at 15.2 mm thick.
To be fair to Audemars Piguet Replica Watches For Sale, reaching a younger demographic is an immense challenge for an industry that reeks of antiquity and conservatism like few others do — and reaching it successfully without alienating those customers who have felt right at home in this old-fashioned environment is nothing short of art. Whether or not Audemars Piguet is on the right track, we’ll let everyone judge for themselves.
