Collaborations and best replica watches inspired by pop and street culture are, without a doubt, an important part of Audemars Piguet‘s recent history. No other brand on the haute horlogerie scene has fostered such creative synergies with different universes. Sport, pop culture, art, fashion and entertainment… It looks at things from a different perspective, like it or not. This year, Audemars Piguet unveils a new Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked limited edition in collaboration with brand and label Cactus Jack, founded by American hip-hop artist Travis Scott. And yes, it is indeed “The Chocolate AP,” as Travis Scott likes to call it in his latest album. Yet another polarizing collaboration with a slightly controversial artist, but one that truly looks spectacular.

AP x Collabs

As most of you might know, this new model isn’t the first time the Swiss watchmaker ventured into the world of music and sport, and specifically hip-hop and basketball culture. Far from that! As primed examples, we can name, among others, collaborations with Jay-Z (2005) and LeBron James (2013). The brand has made a name for itself in this domain since the early 2000s, to the point that AP has since become one of the most quoted brands in rap songs. It might not be something that talks to the entire spectrum of the collecting community and to a wide audience of UK luxury fake watches enthusiasts, but it has certainly brought the brand under the spotlight, making it visible to many more people than just watch lovers. A successful strategy…? Looking at sales figures of the brand in recent years, you could say so. A long-term achievement? Time will tell.

What we have to consider right now is the brand’s latest collaboration, cheap replica watches made together with one of the most successful rap artists in recent years, Travis Scott and his label Cactus Jack. It isn’t the first time the man has teamed up with other brands to create unique, collectable objects – check this for an overview of his most famed collabs, including multiple takes on the emblematic Air Jordan sneakers or the official Cactus Jack x Dior capsule.

The Chocolate AP by Travis Scott

For this new collaborative project, the top 2024 copy watches of choice isn’t just a standard Royal Oak (if a Royal Oak could be called this…) It’s actually based on one of the most desirable, bold and intricately finished editions of the RO, the Perpetual Calendar Openworked Black Ceramic. But what Travis Scott and his label Cactus Jack have done goes way beyond just a few details on the dial, a new strap and an engraving on the caseback. The Travis Scott x Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked Cactus Jack Limited Edition 26585CM (a mouthful name, admittedly) brings an unprecedented colour for the ceramic case, a dial full of details and unique features and, overall, a surprisingly consistent design. I would not have expected this, but the result, if bold and polarizing, is rather amazing.

The AP x Travis Scott Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked is first and foremost an impressively technical and high-end 1:1 replica watches. Despite the modernity of the design and colour scheme, it remains a watch from true haute horlogerie level. It’s not just a stamped logo on a base model. Visually speaking, we’re on familiar grounds, with the classic look of the RO Perpetual. Here, Audemars Piguet presents its first Royal Oak model in brown ceramic, which is the signature colour of Cactus Jack (which is the central theme of his Nike Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG SP or the Dior capsule collection).

Used for the case, bezel, crown and caseback, ceramic (or Zirconium Oxide powder Zr2O, if you want to be precise) has long been used by AP for the Royal Oak Perpetual, which we’ve seen already in black, white or even blue with closed dials. As for the Openworked version, black was the only option so far. Travis Scott decided to bring his favourite colour, with a chocolate brown tone from head to toe… And as always with ceramic, achieving uniform colour is a delicate and crucial stage, before the components are finished by hand to reach the same level of precision as what is found on a metal version. The case retains all the classic features and finishes of a steel or gold RO, with the octagonal bezel and case alternating satin-brushed surfaces and polished chamfers.

The case of this AP x Travis Scott Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar, apart from the unprecedented brown ceramic, is identical to all previous editions, with a 41mm diameter and relatively thin 9.9mm thickness. The bezel retains the traditional hexagonal white gold screws as well as the flat sapphire crystal protecting the dial, here revealing the beauty of the in-house skeletonized movement. Despite the screw-lock crown and screwed back, which features a sapphire window, the AAA Swiss fake Audemars Piguet watches is only water-resistant to 20m, a common feature of all ceramic QPs. On the wrist, it’s a relatively lightweight watch – the combination of a strap and the ceramic makes it highly pleasant on the wrist – and one that is, from a certain distance, not too striking visually. The chocolate brown colour is more subtle than one could imagine. It blends well with all the other elements of the watch, including the specific strap and the discreet gold accents.

We continue on the dial where this Travis Scott x Audemars Piguet Chocolate Brown Royal Oak brings a ton of unique details… While the layout and the indications are classics for the Swiss movements replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked watches, the Cactus Jack limited edition changes almost all design details. The sapphire dial reveals most of the delicately finished movement, which is here rhodium-plated with discreet pink-gold-toned hues. The mesmerizing intertwining of gears, springs and levels is barely hidden under the transparent indications, which comprises, as always, the week numbers on the inner flange, hours and minutes in the centre and a perpetual calendar with date, day of the week, month, leap year and double-moon.

The evolution compared to classic Audemars Piguet RO Perpetual Calendar Openworked super clone watches for sale are countless. First, the thin circle surrounding the day, month and date subdials respectively located at 9, 12 and 3 o’clock have been treated in a rose gold colour, pairing nicely with the brown tone of the case. The hour, minute and counters hands, like the hour markers inserted within the seconds scale, are crafted in gold and covered with brown PVD before being filled with a white luminescent material that turns blue in the dark. Finally, multiple elements on the dial refer to the visual identity of Travis Scott’s brand, Cactus Jack.

First, AP’s team has specially designed the typography of the calendar indications based on Travis Scott’s hand-drawn model, which can be found on the week indication too, on the inner flange. The hand of the day subdial takes on the shape of the brand’s logo. And the most distinctive element of the dial is, without a doubt, the design of the moon phase at 6 o’clock. The traditional photorealistic representation of Earth’s natural satellite has been replaced by Cactus Jack’s emblematic smiley face with its mouth sewn shut on a blue aventurine base, with the face’s luminescent coating glowing blue in the dark. All other calendar indications, with the exception of the week indication, are endowed with a luminescent material that turns green at night for a striking luminous effect.

The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked “Cactus Jack” Limited Edition is powered by the selfwinding Calibre 5135, a movement that we’ve seen already in the classic black ceramic Openworked edition. Based on the calibre 2121, the ultra-thin movement that is found in the Royal Oak Ultra-Thin Jumbo 15202 and easily recognizable with its oscillating weight with an annular ring running on four jewels, it adds a perpetual calendar function on top, with most of the mechanics exposed. As you’d expect, assuming the perfect replica watches is kept fully wound, the date will not require manual correction until 2100.

All parts, front and back, are finished to an impressive level, with circular brushing, satin brushing, sandblasting, sunray brushing and polished chamfers, among other decorations. The bridges, the cock, the main plate, the barrel drum and the ratchet wheel have all been hollowed and decorated with superb attention to detail, including a multitude of internal angles. Specific to this Travis Scott/Cactus Jack edition, the openworked 22k pink gold oscillating weight is finished with satin brushing and polished chamfers. It is also engraved with the double “Audemars Piguet” and “Cactus Jack” signatures. The Cactus Jack logo appears in the centre of the oscillating weight. The caseback is engraved with “Utopia is a state of mind” in reference to Travis Scott’s latest album.

Also a specificity of this Travis Scott x Audemars Piguet fake watches for men, the traditional RO bracelet in ceramic has been replaced by a new textured calfskin leather strap, adding to the distinctive look of this collab. It is closed by a pink gold folding clasp engraved with both the signatures of AP and Travis Scott. One of the mobile loops of the strap also shows the “Utopia is a state of mind” reference.

Thought, availability & price

This new Travis Scott x Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked Cactus Jack Limited Edition will surely create strong reactions. As with previous collaborations, it ventures into different universes, far from the classic codes of haute horlogerie. There’s no doubt that both the personality of Travis Scott and the overall partnership are polarizing, even maybe a bit controversial. That being said, if we look at this best quality replica watches solely through the lens of watchmaking, it is certainly a highly impressive model, with a design that is coherent, original and distinctive yet desirable. It’s actually relatively discreet for such a theme and the whole timepiece is, without a doubt, of a very high level. Whether you like the background story or not is up to you.

A limited edition of 200 pieces, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked Cactus Jack Limited Edition Brown Ceramic (reference 26585CM.OO.D301VE.01) will be priced at CHF 178,000 excluding taxes.

New Release: UK AAA Swiss Fake IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 AMG And Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team Watches

Watch companies and racing teams are a natural pairing. IWC is a prime example, as an official partner of Mercedes-AMG since 2004 and the “Official Engineering Partner” of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team since 2013. With that in mind, IWC is best known for its pilot’s Swiss made replica watches, and it has historically been models such as the Big Pilot or Pilot’s Watch Chronograph series that have been most closely linked to the brand’s longstanding automotive partnerships. However, as its latest new release for 2023, IWC has launched two new 1:1 top fake watches specifically dedicated to the Schaffhausen-based manufacturer’s automotive partners .The new duo of IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 models take the core platform of the brand’s fan-favorite chronograph and gives it a motorsport-inspired twist with tachymeter bezels made from black ceramic.

The first of the two models is the perfect UK replica IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 AMG. This model features a case made from grade 5 titanium that measures 41.1mm in diameter by 14.8mm thick, with largely brushed surfaces and thin high-polished bevels on the lugs. Just like the brand’s standard Pilot’s Watch Chronograph, a signed screw-down crown sits at 3 o’clock flanked by two pushers, while water resistance for the new IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 AMG comes in at 100 meters to protect against daily contact. Similarly, a screw-down display caseback closes up the reverse side of the watch, and a gently convex sapphire crystal secured against displacement due to drops in air pressure protects the dial. However, surrounding the crystal on the new Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 AMG is a black ceramic bezel with a tachymeter scale that allows users to measure average speed relative to distance traveled.

The dial and hands of the new luxury copy IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 AMG offer an entirely black and white color profile with the same core design and layout than can be found among the rest of the brand’s Pilot’s Watch Chronograph series. Although the dial still consists of a trio of registers in a 6-9-12 layout along with both day and date displays at the 3 o’clock location, the Arabic numeral hour markers are now larger. They also appear as applied elements on the dial that are made from blackened nickel filled with Super-LumiNova, rather than of being simply printed on the dial like the standard Pilot’s Watch Chronograph models. Additionally, as the hour markers are larger, the trio of registers now slightly cut off the indexes that are positioned adjacent to them, and the recessed registers themselves now have their tracks on elevated frames in blackened nickel to match the surrounds of the hour markers.

The other new model is the Swiss movements replica IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team. This variant takes the core concept of the previously-mentioned titanium Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 AMG and renders it in Ceratanium. This is the brand’s proprietary alloy, made from a special type of titanium that undergoes a thermal treatment process to give it a surface that offers many of the properties of ceramic, along with a unique matte black finish. Aside from the difference in material for its case components, the external dimensions and specifications are the same for the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team edition. Arguably the most noticeable difference is the use of the bright turquoise (the F1 team’s signature color) for the minute track, running seconds hand, and the printing on the calendar discs for both the day and date displays.

Aside from their case materials and colorways, one final difference between the two new online super clone IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 models is the amount of branding that can be found on their respective casebacks. The display windows themselves appear to both be made from smoked sapphire crystal, with additional lines of text noting their respective collaborations printed along the underside surface of the outer perimeter. However, while the titanium Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 AMG version features a large graphic of the AMG logo printed on the underside surface of its caseback’s display window, the Ceratanium Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team edition offers a much more subtle approach to its caseback branding. Here, there are just the two arched lines of text and no central graphic whatsoever.

Both versions of the IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 are offered with either black rubber straps or matching H-link bracelets. The tang-style buckles on the straps and the entirety of bracelets are all crafted from either grade 5 titanium or Ceratanium, to match the cases of their respective replica watches wholesale. Additionally, the straps and bracelets all feature IWC’s EasX-CHANGE strap system, where standard spring-bars are fitted to the 20mm lugs, and the straps and bracelets themselves include an integrated push-button system that allows users to simply unclip them from the spring-bars. I’m personally a big fan of this approach, as it permits IWC to have a very slick proprietary quick-release system, while still retaining a standard lug/springbar design that permits the use of any third-party strap options.

As you might expect, both of the new 2023 China fake IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 models are powered by the same automatic chronograph movement. This is also the same IWC manufacture Caliber 69385 that you will find inside the standard Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 models. Running at a frequency of 28,800vph (4 Hz) with a power reserve of approximately 46 hours, the 33-Jewel IWC Cal. 69385 movement consists of 242 components, and it uses a column wheel to control its chronograph complication. Additionally, you will also find this same movement inside the original Pilot’s Watch Chronograph model IWC produced for the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team that initially debuted last year in 2022, along with the rest of the brand’s current-production Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 watches.

While IWC has previously produced other cheap replica watches dedicated to its automotive partnerships, including a limited-edition version of the Big Pilot’s Watch Perpetual Calendar Edition that was designed by Toto Wolff (the Team Principal of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team), the new IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 models actually lean into their automotive partnerships from a functional standpoint. This includes the addition of a tachymeter scale bezel, which is a feature typically associated with racing chronographs. Creating a duo of racing-themed versions of the fan-favorite Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 that celebrate IWC’s partnership with both Mercedes-AMG and its Formula One Team simply makes a lot of sense, and with its largely black colorway that features small white and turquoise accents, the Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team version has a color profile that is near identical to the livery of team’s 2023 F1 car.

As far as pricing, the titanium high quality replica IWC Pilot’s Watches Performance Chronograph 41 AMG is less expensive than its Ceratanium sibling with an official retail price of $9,800 USD when purchased on a strap (ref. IW388305) or $11,700 USD should buyers opt for the version with a matching titanium bracelet (ref. IW388304). Meanwhile Ceratanium naturally costs more than grade 5 titanium. Thus the IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team is more expensive than its sibling, with an official retail price of $13,700 USD when purchased on the rubber strap (ref. IW388306) or $19,900 USD for the top-of-the-line version that comes with a full Ceratanium bracelet (ref. IW388307). While the new models share quite a lot of DNA with the brand’s classic pilot’s fake watches for men, the updated dial design paired with the black tachymeter bezel ultimately provides the new IWC Pilot’s Watch Performance Chronograph 41 with a noticeably more racing-themed aesthetic that lends itself perfectly to the brand’s two long-standing automotive partnerships.
