The sleek, elegant and versatile vibe of the 34mm black ceramic 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding could be seen as the equivalent of a little black dress or, for that matter, a smart black shirt for gentlemen who prefer smaller watches. The perfect replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding 34mm made its debut in 2021 and marked the first time a straightforward time-and-date RO got the full-ceramic look, a treat formerly reserved for complicated Audemars Piguet fake watches online. In light of the 50th-anniversary Royal Oak celebrations, the latest 34m Royal Oak Selfwinding 77350CE reveals some of the subtle design updates that have been applied and will be applied to the permanent collection throughout 2022.
SMALLER DIMENSIONS AND CERAMIC CASE
The first 34mm AAA replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding appeared in 2020 and was a breath of fresh air for women or men with small wrists who didn’t want to settle for the 33m quartz-powered Audemars Piguet Royal Oak copy for sale. Fitted with an automatic calibre made by Vaucher, the news that the 34mm time-and-date was going to be the first uncomplicated Royal Oak to get the full-ceramic treatment in 2021 was well received.
AP’s first ceramic case appeared on the gigantic 48mm limited edition ROO Arnold Schwarzenegger Legacy Chronograph of 2011, followed in 2017 by the black full-ceramic (case and bracelet) RO Perpetual Calendar 41mm, ref. 26579CE. Given the intrinsic hardness of ceramic, it is notoriously difficult to machine and takes a lot longer to produce than a model in steel. Notwithstanding the challenges of working with ceramic, high quality replica Audemars Piguet was determined to respect the Royal Oak’s bold geometry, sharp facets, and finishings, including its vertically brushed flat surfaces and polished bevels. As Xavier explained in his coverage of the RO Perpetual Calendar, AP aimed to “finish the ceramic case and bracelet to the same standard as that of a steel Audemars Piguet Royal Oak fake for sale. Not an easy feat by any means and one that was only made possible after 600 hours of R&D. The finishing of the bracelet alone requires 30 hours, which is five times longer than the steel version”.
SUBTLE TWEAKS
If you’ve been reading our reviews of the evolutions of the Selfwinding cheap fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks in light of this icon’s 50th anniversary, you know that there was nothing – thankfully – earth-shattering about the design updates. Meddling too much with Gérald Genta’s octagonal 1972 design would not be appreciated by the legions of Audemars Piguet Royal Oak super clone CA fans around the world. The 34mm RO Selfwinding black ceramic has not undergone as many changes as some of the other members (37, 38 and 41mm) of the Swiss made copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak family; the main tweaks can be appreciated on the dial.
Like the 2021 fake watch, the dial has a black guilloché Grande Tapisserie background with applied pink gold applied indices and hands to match the eight pink gold screws on the bezel (most RO models use white gold screws), and the pink gold insert in the crown. What changes, however, is that the applied AP monogram at noon with the brand name below of the 2021 model has been replaced with a 24k pink gold applied signature. Initially developed for Swiss movement fake Audemars Piguet ’s Code 11.59, the signature is created using galvanic growth, a chemical process similar to 3D printing. Each letter is connected with practically invisible links and placed by hand on the dial.
