APS Factory Audemars Piguet 26393 Replica Watch Review

To be honest, this series of watches has been criticized by both the genuine and replica watch communities. When it first appeared on the market, there was a lack of round watch shape and the royal style of the Royal Oak. It’s also very different from an Audemars Piguet. But, over time, after the smoked blue dial and white gold version and the chronograph version came out they started to actually look pretty and great on too. Because it is not in a traditional AudemarsPiguet style so its even harder to replicate than the royal oak due to its complicated case shape, multi layered side structure, a more curved crystal shape, higher dial gradient requirement, and high precision chronograph layout. And then, have they mastered it at the APS factory, or is it something like it? Let’s break it down.

Are the smoked blues as good as the real thing?

The genuine smoked blue is not actually a blue. It’s bright in the middle, and fades as you get towards the edges. The color also changes depending on the light. On the APS factory version the dial is right. The color is not a fluorescent blue or cheap purplish blue, it’s a cool blue. The gradient transition is pretty smooth – it won’t go all pitch black suddenly. Under strong light, it’s bright in the middle and dark around the edges and has good overall layering. Of course, it’s also true that compared to the real thing, the gradient layering of the APS factory is a little lacking, but when viewed from a distance, there’s absolutely no difference that can be noticed. The biggest techical challenge of the code series is that it’s not just one round case, it’s round on front, Octagonal on the side, then round on back, and there’s a floating structure in the middle. The APS factory replica watch finishing their case structure is one of the more impressive parts of the watch. There is eight side octagonal layers, non one piece either, the lug to middle case connection is smooth no sudden breaks, overall thickness is good not thickround: From the side, it has an architectural vibe, which is important for the code.

Correct the replica watch crystal curvature?

Double curved Sapphire crystal; the curved Sapphire crystal: A lot of replicas fail here, either too flat a curvature or too much glare. The APS Factory Audemars Piguet 26393 Replica Watch has the right curved crystal. It looks a little round from the front but not as obvious as with a fisheye lens. If you look at it from the side you can see the layering. Glare control is also okay: it doesn’t go completely white at certain angles. In this area, we can see that APS Factory has made some investments. The three registers are structured like a standard chronograph. Any deviation in subdial positioning would be very obvious. APSpfactory Subdials are in the right position and proportion, basically like the real thing’s spatial sense, neither cramming nor emptiness. The subdials have a little sags,not flat, and the edges are clear. Marks are nice and neat with no smearing. The chronograph pushers have a decent feel – not super crisp but also not flimsy – great for everyday use.

Will the white gold outer surface will be as steel?

This one is made with 18k white gold so fake ones definitely wont use the real white gold. The APS factory starts with a stainless steel base, then electroplates it with white gold. OK. The benefit of using white gold plating is white gold plating is cool and soft compared to its gray color of ordinary steel and compared to its shine of water plating steel. The white on this watch is clean and textued, it’s not glaring. It doesn’t look cheap. OK, maybe it doesn’t have the soft feel of real gold, but among imitation watches, it has the grace not to look like steel.

Will the details cut down the general quality?

People may be hesitant at first glance at this strap, but the truth is that this strap is just right for this watch. Folks, the fabric surface makes the whole watch neither too proper, nor too athletic, giving it a modern gents vibe. The APS factory strap feels great, not hard or uncomfortable on the foot, and is very comfortable to wear. It’s easier to wear on a metal strap compared to a leather strap and it is also meant for everyday wear. The real one is using Cal.4401 movement, an in-house chronograph movement that replica watch can’t reproduce. The APS factory is using a finished, mature movement and it looks fantastic with simulated finishes. See-through case back is not messy, but if you really understand AP movements, you would find a difference. But in real life, there’s very few that would look at the case back of this watch. It has an ok to borderline-stable timekeeping. A replica chronograph. It’s not something everyone talks about and nobody knows what it is. So as long as the overall is good, it will be less questioned than the Royal Oak. The APS factory’s dial, case shape, crystalline nature, and general proportions are all top-notch, which makes it a replica that is easier to accept for the people who know watches. The APS factory now has one of the best levels of completion for the chronograph model, it’s a great representation of the dial, the case shape, the crystal, a really high end replica that the insiders would love.
