APS Factory Audemars Piguet 15210 Replica Watch Review
To be honest, apart from the Royal Oak, other AP series haven’t been very popular, but the CODE 11.59 is an exception. It was quite controversial in its first few years, but more and more collectors have discovered that this series is actually quite beautiful, growing more appealing with each viewing. In this instance APS Factory created a replica watch and to my initial thought after receiving it in my hand was, it has a pretty good feel in it. It is not too bling-bling; by the time you have it on, people will not assume that you are flaunting but rather it stands on its own with its own silent sophistication. I will cover the looks, dial, sapphire crystal structure, the movement, comfort of wear, and advantages and disadvantages individually below.
This clean beauty—APS got it right this time.
The key to the design of the 15210BC can be summed up in two words: clean. Not a simplistic cleanliness, but a cleanliness where every blank space is carefully designed. Upon initial look at the replica watch by APS Factory the first immediate thought is that it is a stable, crisp, watch with an air of that AP high-end feel, but not gritty enough like the Royal Oak. The diameter of the 41mm case is a bit excessive, though due to its round shape and multi-layered design, does not appear excessive on the wrist. The highlights are direct: the lines of the cases are extremely straight, edges pass in a natural manner, and lugs are slightly angled out, just as on the original. The proportions of the bezel are also ideal and the round case does not appear old. On the whole, it is a watch that fits perfectly with shirts, T-shirts and is very versatile. This watch has the soul in the dial. The blue used by AP does not blindly again, but a refined blue containing some coolness and gray. Concisely, APS has reprinted this blue: sound- great- it is as good as it should be at this price.
Three key points:
① The paint is exceptionally clean, without any dirt or oil streaks. This is crucial; a poorly done paint job instantly lowers the overall quality of the watch.
② The blue’s sheen is understated; it doesn’t reflect light like glitter, but it also doesn’t shine like a disco.
③ The numerals are engraved very neatly, especially “12, 3, 9,” with a good three-dimensional effect and no plasticky feel. I would give the overall quality control of the dial a stable to above-average rating.
It perfectly reproduces the curvature of sapphire crystal.
If you haven’t worn the CODE 11.59, you might not know what makes this replica watch so difficult to make. Its sapphire crystal is domed, with an inner curved layer and an outer flat layer. Poor workmanship can result in magnification distortion, dial distortion, and edge deformation. APS is surprisingly stable in this regard; the edge refraction of the crystal is natural, with no obvious distortion in the middle, good light transmission, and it doesn’t stretch or distort the dial. Visually, it maintains the unique feel of the CODE’s glass dome on the dial, which deserves praise. The genuine watch uses the Calibre 4302 movement, an integrated in-house three-hand design. APS couldn’t replicate such a complex movement, so it naturally uses a familiar and stable automatic mechanism. In actual use, the winding is smooth, the oscillation sound is not loud, the hands move smoothly, and the daily error is controllable. APS movements have always been known for their stability and lack of gimmicks, and this one is no exception. It’s not meant for you to disassemble and study the movement, but for you to wear with peace of mind. This model is positioned as understated yet perfectly adequate.
Classic size:41mm
A number of individuals may believe that 41mm is huge, yet the proportions of case in the CODE 11.59 make it incredibly comfortable to put on. In brief, it is light, it fits well, and it is not obnoxious in any way, which makes it suitable to be worn on a daily basis. The Blue alligator leather strap is not too hard and does not need breakage of the strap as other hard leathers do. The strap is also made up to the normal standard used by APS- it does not scratch or chafe the wrist. The thickness of 10.7mm is highly congenial; it will not be caught at all under shirt sleeves. The weight of the watch is just sufficient without being perceived as too light or so heavy to cause any fatigue on the wrists. This time APS has nailed down the essence of the CODE series. The copy gets more than 80 percent of the minimalistic and still high-class feel of original. Naturally, there are also differences, namely, a greater metallic luster of the white gold case (greater on the genuine), a richness of light and shadowing on the blue dial (greater on the genuine) and the purity of the luster of the hands. Nonetheless, these variations are minimal; it is just that in daily life, one will just notice that you have a classy blue-dial dialed watch that is a dress, not an outright imitation.This APS Factory Audemars Piguet 15210 Replica Watch perfectly replicates the sophisticated, clean, and understated style of the CODE series. The blue dial is beautiful, the case is solid, the glass is clear, and it’s comfortable to wear. Once you put it on, you won’t want to take it off.
