The Low-down
Cheap Audemars Piguet Replica launched a plethora of new arrivals – 34 to be exact. A true celebration of what the Royal Oak stands for – an incredible piece of design that not only remains relevant, but defines the industry’s current design output and looks at the collection itself in many ways.
Now referenced 16202, the Jumbo features subtle changes to the case and one-piece bracelet that accentuate its signature silhouette and make it more comfortable to wear. But the biggest change is that the Jumbo is now powered by an all-new calibre 7121. This new movement has been around for a long time, and it addresses all the trivial shortcomings of the JLC ébauche calibre 2121.
RD#1 is the most refined expression the minute repeater Swiss Audemars Piguet Replica can make, focusing on enhancing the volume, quality and harmony of the minute repeater. Its patented gong and case design produces a chime in the watch as loud and clear as a pocket watch. RD#2 is another complication in the form of an ultra-thin perpetual calendar. AP achieves this feat with a separate mechanism that incorporates the perpetual calendar function and reduces the height of the movement from three levels to a flat surface, with the dial also serving as the top plate.
The calibre 2968 of the Audemars Piguet Replica Watches China was developed alongside the calibre 7121 of the new Jumbo, both of which largely share the same architecture. In order to achieve the ultra-thin height of 3.4 mm of the calibre 2968, which is only 0.2 mm more than the calibre 7121, AP focused on redesigning the structure of the traditional tourbillon itself.
All of these changes are made to create a light and airy feel that complements Jumbo’s thin shell. According to Michael Friedman, Head of Complications, “The movement architecture is designed to provide a unique perspective of a smaller case, while demonstrating a fascinating contrast of hand-finishing techniques throughout.”
Through the sapphire case back, the semi-skeletonized movement and the open bridges of the self-winding gear train, the barrel and the movement running chain maintain a sense of lightness. The bridges themselves are no longer adorned with traditional Côtes de Genève, but more modern ruled tires. By contrast, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Replica refined bevels of the polished outer edges, and even the inner corners of the hollowed-out sections, demonstrate AP’s expertise in classic hand-finishing techniques. The similarly decorated two-way skeletonised oscillating weight is made of 22-karat rose gold, rhodium-plated to match the movement bridges.
As for the bathtub-shaped, luminous-filled indexes and hands, they are slimmer than other Audemars Piguet Replica Swiss Made, which have thicker faceted markers and hands. A further return to the original is the Audemars Piguet logo at 12 o’clock and the minute scale printed directly on the dial.
Whether you love or hate the tourbillon, exposed on the dial or otherwise, it is undeniably the ultimate expression of the beating heart, the most important part of a mechanical watch. Likewise, the Best Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo Replica Watch is the genre-defining and ultimate expression of luxury stainless steel sports watches.
