Gerald Genta’s Custom CA Swiss Fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Sells For $2.13M USD

Just two days after a bidder broke the world record price for a vintage 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, it has once again been smashed, this time for the watch once owned by the iconic model’s designer.

Not even the second luxury replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak ever made could outshine Gerald Genta’s personal watch, a unique configuration stainless steel model from 1978 with 18K yellow gold bezel “that Genta produced and added himself at his workshop in Switzerland.”

The Swiss made fake Audemars Piguet was the subject of a six-minute bidding war between seven bidders, eventually hammering for CHF 2,107,000 ($2,130,767), almost twice that paid for the Ref. 5402ST A2 at Phillips earlier in the week.

Genta’s super clone watch was the highlight of Gerald Genta: Icon of Time, a three-part sale of more than 100 of Genta’s original designs, that concludes in New York in June.

“Gérald was an artist before all else, and I feel like Icon of Time demonstrates the ongoing influence Gérald’s creative genius has on watchmaking today,” says Mrs. Evelyne Genta, president of the Gérald Genta Heritage Association and life and business partner of Mr Genta. “His best fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak was of course one of his most iconic watches, and such an exceptional piece can only go to someone who appreciates this.”

A portion of the proceeds from the sales will also benefit the Gérald Genta Heritage Association, and their mission to encourage and reward the next generation in the copy watch industry, notably with the launch of the first edition of the Gérald Genta Prize for Young Talent.

“Over the course of my career, rarely have I seen such an emotional response to any horological object, both by connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike, making today’s result all the more rewarding,” says Mikael Wallhagen, Head of Sotheby’s Super Clone Watches in Geneva.

The record for the most expensive high quality fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak of all time was set last year at the Only Watch charity auction, when an all titanium Ref. 15202 sold for $3.4M USD.

CA Perfect Replica Audemars Piguet produces first Royal Oak Jumbo with flying tourbillon

Swiss fake Audemars Piguet CA isn’t exhibiting at Watches & Wonders, but that hasn’t stopped it introducing a show stopping version of its Extra-Thin 50th anniversary super clone Audemars Piguet Royal Oak; this time with a flying tourbillon.

A 39mm steel on steel 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet is launching this month, with a 37mm piece going on sale in September.
Both are equipped with a new self-winding, slim, flying tourbillon movement, the Calibre 2968, which is just 3.4 mm thick, and has a 50 hour power reserve.

Launching in the AAA fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak’s silver jubilee year, the movement has been given the special 50th anniversary rotor.

It has allowed Audemars Piguet replica for sale to make its first automatic flying tourbillon watch in smaller sized watches.

“The cheap fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak continues to evolve and cut through the timeline 50 years after its creation and will do so for the next 50 years and beyond. It remains a platform for both technical and aesthetic development, as demonstrated by the new ultra-thin flying tourbillon making its debut on both the classic 39mm and the celebrated 37mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica watches Paypal.

The movement architecture was designed to offer a unique view of the smaller cage while showcasing an engaging contrast of hand-finishing techniques throughout,” explains Michael Friedman, Swiss made fake Audemars Piguet’s head of complications.

The Swiss movement copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Extra-Thin (RD#3) has a blue petite tapisserie patterned dial with white gold applied hour-markers and CA super clone Audemars Piguet Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating.

Price is on request.

CA Best 1:1 Fake Audemars Piguet: Eighty-Eight Super Rare Royal Oaks Go up for Sale

Of the thousands of luxury replica watches ca released each year, there are very few that could genuinely be called “design classics”.

Swiss made replica Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak is one of them.

With its octagonal case and exposed screw-heads, it was highly unusual when it come out in in 1972. It looked weird. Weirder still was its positioning. It was a sports copy watch, sold as a luxury item… but made of steel.

It cost about £1,600, an extortionate amount back then. At the time an 18kt gold super clone Rolex Submariner would have set you back £360.

“At a price like this, why don’t they conceal the bolts?” asked one of perfect replica Audemars Piguet’s own provocative advertisements.

It was seen as a huge risk when it was created by the eminent watch designer Gérald Genta. History shows it turned out to be one of the smartest moves a watch company ever made – today the CA 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is said to account for well over half of AP’s annual sales, in the tens of millions.

Over five decades its desirability has seldom waned. As recently as last year it was being heralded as ‘Hollywood’s Favourite Watch’, seen on the wrists of a new era of zeitgeist-y celebs including Travis Scott, Drake and Steph Curry.

This year the AAA replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak turns 50. Marketing departments at watch companies scarcely need much encouragement to celebrate anniversaries of any kind – it’s always the 45th birthday of some model or other, or 30 years since the first X could do Y.

But this one is genuinely worth celebrating.

While cheap fake Audemars Piguet is busy with a full year’s worth of new limited-edition Royal Oaks, all of which have so far sold-out within hours, the model’s back catalogue has also been doing brisk business.

Next month the auction house Phillips hosts a sale dedicated to wholesale copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks of special historical interest.

The Royal Oak 50th will be held in Geneva and feature 88 of “the finest, rarest and best-preserved Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks replica for sale known to exist”. Phillips says “to the best of our knowledge, we have never seen or heard of so many historically important, rare and, in some cases, unique Royal Oaks gathered in one place or shown to the public”.

A quick glimpse at the catalogue makes it hard to disagree.

Also on sale is Karl Lagerfeld’s top copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. The late Chanel designer was a fan – often sporting different versions of the watch himself, before handing them out to friends as gifts. This one, also a best replica Audemars Piguet ref. 5402, is coated in black PVD (a very Lagerfeld touch). Phillips is careful with its wording here, calling it “an icon probably worn by an icon” – photos of Lagerfeld wearing a black PVD Royal Oak certainly exist, though no one’s 100 per cent it’s this one.

If you’re tempted, the estimate is CHF 100,000-200,000 (£81,000-£162,000).

There are also various rare tourbillon and grand complications Swiss copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks up for sale.

Swiss movement replica Audemars Piguet has yet to scale those heights. Yet it is enjoying an unprecedented purple patch. According to The New York Times this year it climbed above its rival Patek Philippe super clone CA in pure revenue terms for the first time in living memory, posting $1.6 billion (£1.2bn) in sales, an increase of about half-a-billion on 2020 estimates.

On the watch auction league table best quality copy Audemars Piguet’s biggest hitter is also one of its most recent – at Number 16 is the Marvel superhero-themed super clone Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Black Panther Flying Tourbillon, that sold for $5.2m (£3.9m) in 2021, the same year it was released.

A golden period for a watch celebrating its golden anniversary, then.

In 1972 that £1,600 would have been money well-spent.

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica Paypal 50th takes place on 6 May.

Phillips luxury fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 50th CA auction

What’s particularly interesting about Phillips’ traditional late spring auction this year is that it is preceded by an “appetizer” sale on May 6 with a catalogue so rich it could arguably serve as the main course. One day before Geneva XV begins, Phillips will present The Royal Oak 50th auction, a collection of more than 80 examples of the 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. Gérald Genta’s beloved watch design marks its golden jubilee anniversary this year.

The Royal Oak examples crossing the auction block illustrate many riffs on the Royal Oak theme, variations that AAA replica Audemars Piguet CA offered across many decades. For example, the first lot presents one of my personal favorites: Reference 15100ST “Time for the Trees.” The hallmark tapisserie blue dial on this version of the Royal Oak is embellished by the profile of a tree in relief. This limited edition commemorates perfect fake Audemars Piguet’s financial support for replanting of trees around the globe in the late 1990s and early 2000s, a pet project of chairperson Jasmine Audemars. The auction estimate for this lot is CHF 15,000 – 20,000.

The cheap fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak collection has also featured experiments in textured finishing such as Carolina Bucci’s highly popular 2016 Florentine metalworking on the case and bracelet that the brand dubbed Frosted Gold. The 20-year anniversary of the best copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak involved an even earlier application of the textured design motif. Lot 10, for example, is a Reference 14802PT with “Tuscan-finished” dial. This super clone watch ca was one of only 20 produced in platinum and carries an estimate of CHF 250,000 – 500,000.

Without a doubt, the historical highlight in the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica for sale 50th catalogue is lot number 8, a Reference 5402ST “Series A.” This particular watch is numbered “2.” It is the second Royal Oak ever produced and the earliest Audemars Piguet Royal Oak fake online offered at a public auction. The consignor obtained this watch from a retailer sometime after it was exhibited at the Royal Oak’s debut during the 1972 Basel Fair. This copy Audemars Piguet, in unworn condition, carries an estimate of CHF 200,000 – 400,000.

The hundreds of lots in Phillips’ back-to-back May auctions are connected to history in so many surprising and interesting ways that it is difficult to do them justice. As is frequently the result of the Bacs & Russo team’s curation, with these catalogues the collecting public has a chance to obtain and/or appreciate replica watches online sale that illustrate the depth and breadth of watchmaking over many decades.

It is remarkable that Phillips was able to assemble this assortment through a period of relative turmoil. We can certainly hope that the Geneva Watch Auction XV and the wholesale fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 50th will mark a waypoint to more tranquil and peaceful years in the near future.

Introducing For The First Time Ever, The CA Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Jumbo” Gets An Extra-Thin Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon

What We Know
While Swiss fake Audemars Piguet CA wasn’t at Watches & Wonders, that hasn’t stopped it from trying to steal the show with the new Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Extra-Thin RD#3, the first iconic “Jumbo” cased-movement with a self-winding flying tourbillon.

AAA replica Audemars Piguet rightfully takes a lot of pride in their efforts to push the industry forward with their series of research and development models but, as is the nature of major breakthroughs, the fruits of their labor don’t come around that often. First, the RD#1 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Minute Repeater Supersonnerie prototype was introduced at SIHH in 2015, produced by watchmakers, engineers, musicians, and sound specialists working to create a revolutionary repeater. Next came RD#2, the company’s 41 mm best copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin, released in 2019, the thinnest automatic calendar wristwatch of its time.

With all the technical developments you’d expect from a “research and development” watch, the cheap replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Extra-Thin RD#3 is a fitting nod to the past for the 50th anniversary of the Royal Oak. The best quality fake Audemars Piguet introduced the world’s first self-winding tourbillon wristwatch in 1986 and, thanks to the design vision of Jacqueline Dimier, the company placed the tourbillon on the dial side, an element that has become a quintessential part of the super clone Audemars Piguet Royal Oak lineup.

In many ways this release pays tribute to both Dimier and Gérald Genta’s original iconic design, keeping in line with the aesthetics of the “Jumbo” replica watches Paypal with a 8.1 mm thick, 39mm stainless steel case and bracelet, “Bleu Nuit” Petite Tapisserie dial, and bathtub-shaped hour markers and hands. The titanium flying tourbillon cage at six o’clock catches the eye but doesn’t distract from the fact that this Audemars Piguet fake for sale otherwise feels like a quintessential “Jumbo.”

With all the iconic design elements of a Jumbo cheap fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, the true “research and development” aspect of this watch is under the hood. The new Calibre 2968 is a ridiculously thin 3.4 mm self-winding flying tourbillon movement that took five years to develop. It was a challenging undertaking for high quality replica Audemars Piguet‘s engineers to take a tourbillon design previously reserved for 41mm watches and place it in the Jumbo case. Accomplished, in part, for the first time by a peripheral drive tourbillon with a new escapement, and new geometry and positioning of the balance wheel arms, the result is a flying tourbillon that sits at the dial level.

If all of the above isn’t impressive enough, Swiss movement fake Audemars Piguet CA is releasing a 37mm version of this watch in September, getting even further afield from the 41mm case to which a movement like this used to be relegated.

What We Think
If you thought that 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet would celebrate the 50th Anniversary of one of the most iconic watch designs of all time by simply releasing all their watches early in the year and taking the foot off the gas, you don’t know the brand. This time Audemars Piguet fake online has decided to let technical watchmaking take center stage.

To me, there are few things cooler than seeing what a small cadre of technical problem-solvers can create when it comes to complications. Groups like luxury fake Audemars Piguet‘s complications group, led by Michael Friedman, are the horological equivalent of Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works – technically impressive and fastidious teams whose work speaks for themselves.

When you have a watch like the perfect replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, it’s best to be meticulous in your development. Such an iconic watch, let alone the tried-and-true Jumbo, only works through a delicate balance of proportion and dial design. Take, for example, vintage copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks like the back-wind ref. 25831, where the tourbillon cage was surrounded by a second octagonal “bezel” on the dial, squished against the bottom of the case. It was an element that, to my eye, threw off that delicate balance. But when it’s done right, like it is here, it’s seamless. You’d be excused for passing a picture in your Instagram feed and for a moment not realizing that you’re looking at something pretty remarkable.

Maybe it’s a “watch person’s watch,” in that way, something full of “deep cut” bits of improvement and technical achievements for those who enjoy them. But with such a classic design, form, and fit, it won’t take being a true nerd to enjoy the top copy watch just as much as you would the Jumbo, which has proven very hard to beat.

CA Luxury Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin Ref. 16202BA

First from our team to play with the 50th-anniversary references was our self-described “Royal Oak Junky” J.J. Owens and talented Senior Photographer Liam O’Donnell, who attended a preview of the new collection at CA perfect fake Audemars Piguet’s New York offices shortly before its release.

Among all the new members of the 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak family, the “Jumbo” Extra-Thin Ref. 16202BA, aptly nicknamed “The Golden Lady,” was probably the pinnacle for J.J. (and most of Team Watchonista, to be honest). Commenting shortly after discovering the new release, she said, “Love at first sight! For me, it is the culmination of what the luxury fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak was, is, and can be. I couldn’t be more excited!”

The 16202BA is such a fitting tribute to the legacy of the best quality fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. It’s an amazing homage to the 5402BA, and the dial sings in sunlight. As we wish the cheap copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak a Happy Birthday, Watchonista’s US Director Vincent Brasesco reminisced, saying: “Early Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks copy for sale were known for the charming ‘brassing’ effect that occurred as they aged, and AP has managed to channel that heritage into the 16202BA’s dial in a totally modern way.”

But then, in a series of tremendously beautiful images, our Senior Photographer Liam O’Donnell brought the 16202BA and other high end fake watches to life, showcasing their audacity and elegance in a way that made you feel as if you were standing in front of them.

Summing up the experience of working with the new AAA replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak references, Liam O’Donnell said, “Each and every Royal Oak reference dazzles the eyes with scintillating reflections. I wish everyone could experience the diligent refinement of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak fake Paypal as it changes over the years, something I’ve been fortunate enough to experience a fraction of during my short time photographing watches.”

CA Perfect Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Juan Pablo Montoya ref. 26030IO

Let’s start this list off with a very famous limited-edition Royal Oak Offshore. In 2004, perfect fake Audemars Piguet and Colombian race car driver Juan Pablo Montoya teamed up for a series of limited-edition Royal Oak Offshore models. The first was a titanium version with a silver dial (ref. 26030IO) produced in a limited run of 1,000 pieces. The second was a rose gold version with a black dial (ref. 26020RO), of which best 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet made 500 pieces.

The last was a stunning platinum version with a blue dial (ref. 26030PO), which was a limited edition of only 100 pieces. These high quality copy watches quickly became fan favorites and are still among the most legendary Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore replica Paypal.

For this list, I picked the titanium model as the entry point. As you know, the entry point means the most affordable out of the five copy watches CA on this list. It’s not necessarily an affordable watch, but we will get to that. This specific Montoya AAA replica Audemars Piguet limited edition features a 44mm titanium case that is 15.5mm thick and 53mm from lug to lug.

But if you add the plots — designed like gas pedals — that connect the strap to the case, that increases to almost 58mm, as they do not fold down completely. So, this is definitely a big super clone watch, and it is water-resistant to 100 meters. But as it is made from titanium, it still is very wearable if you can handle the size. As you can imagine, the rose gold and platinum fake watches for sale are the real heavy hitters compared to this piece.

A wavy dial pattern
If we zoom in on the dial, the first thing your eye hits is probably not the dial itself. What immediately stands out is the carbon fiber that cheap fake Audemars Piguet used for the bezel and the hoods of the pusher shoulders. It’s a reference to the racing inspiration of the model. The theme can be seen in different aspects, such as the crown that looks like the center nut of an F1 car, the sides of the pushers that look like air vents, and the relieved channels used on the bezel.

All these details refer to the racing character of the Swiss movement replica Audemars Piguet. And there is the extravagant racing-style strap in black with white stitching, which pays homage to the racing cars and leather racing goods from the past and the more modern Nomex racing suits. There’s no doubt about it — this super clone watch embodies motorsports.

On the dial, you will find the sub-dial hands executed in the colors of the flag of Colombia, Montoya’s home country. On top of that, the Grande Tapisserie pattern gets a wavy motif, referring either to the waving of the Colombian or the checkered flag (I’ll leave that up to you). If you turn the best quality replica Audemars Piguet around, you will see the Audemars Piguet caliber 2226 through the sapphire display case back.

This was the first Audemars Piguet Royal Oak fake Paypal with the feature. The automatic modular chronograph movement is based on the Jaeger-LeCoultre caliber 889 with a Dubois-Dépraz vertical-clutch chronograph module. It operates at 28,800 and has 54 jewels with a 40-hour power reserve. This was the first of the F1 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore replica watches online, and many consider it the best. Current prices average €28K to €35K.

Introducing The Subtle 50th-Anniversary Design Tweaks of the CA Perfect Fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 34mm Black Ceramic

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.

CA Best 1:1 Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin 16202ST

Swiss replica Audemars Piguet CA releases a new model 16202ST Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin that looks pretty much identical to the previous 15202ST apart from the new movement. While the old caliber 2121 has its charms, the new movement is technically superior with a higher beat rate and longer power reserve.

The new 1:1 fake Audemars Piguet also comes fitted with an anniversary rotor and retails at the same price as before; although this point is pretty much moot considering how sought after it is.

The Case and Dial
The stainless steel case measures 39mm by 8mm, 0.1mm thinner than the 15202ST. Other than the measurements on paper, it is otherwise hard to discern visible differences between the 2 models. The iconic AAA replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak design is derived from the famous Octagonal bezel with screws and the integrated style bracelet. Faceted links with a mix of brushed and polished surfaces create a fascinating reflective display that makes the cheap copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak bracelet one of the most attractive designs in existence.


The blue sunburst Tapisserie dial is fit with applied hour markers. They are lume filled as with the two hour and minutes hands. Apart from the high quality replica Audemars Piguet logo at 12, an additional AP raised logo is applied at the 6 o’clock position. This configuration of without the seconds hand and the additional logo makes the super clone watch discernible as the Extra Thin from the regular automatics.
Equipped with a date feature as well, the perfect fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin is the quintessential daily wearer. Its thinness also makes it significantly more comfortable on the wrist.

While perhaps too precious for a beater, its simplicity and classic design is no doubt the reason why it is some of the most in demand sports fake watches online today, perhaps second only to the Patek Nautilus 5711.

The Movement
The Swiss movement replica Audemars Piguet now comes with the upgraded Caliber 7121, a higher beat 28,800 vph compared with the previous Caliber 2121 at 19,800 vph. The higher beat rate is also accompanied with a longer power reserve, at 55 hours compared with 40 hours.

The wholesale copy Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin is possibly the grail watch for many stainless steel sports watch collectors. In terms of execution, nothing has changed, and if any, it has only gotten better. The new in-house movement is potentially a significant improvement for stability, performance and accuracy.

CA Swiss Fake Audemars Piguet to Boost Production as Brand Vies With Patek Philippe

Swiss made fake Audemars Piguet, the luxury Swiss watchmaker best known for its Royal Oak model, will increase production in 2022 as its annual revenue approaches the level of rival Patek Philippe.

The company expects to make 50,000 replica watches for sale this year, up from 45,000 sold in 2021, it said in an emailed response to questions.

1:1 fake Audemars Piguet’s revenue rose by about a third to 1.5 billion francs ($1.6 billion) last year. Morgan Stanley and Bank Vontobel have estimated high-end rival Patek Philippe had sales of about 1.2 billion francs in 2020.

Deep-pocketed buyers who saved cash canceling travel plans during the pandemic have been driving a rebound in sales of high-end Swiss replica watches, including the nearly 150-year-old brand.

Family-owned and controlled, AAA replica Audemars Piguet CA is one of the biggest three independent Swiss watch brands, along with Patek Philippe and Rolex.

The company, based in Le Brassus, Switzerland in the canton of Vaud near Geneva, is bouncing back from a drop of sales in 2020 due to the pandemic.

A report by Morgan Stanley has estimated that best quality fake Audemars Piguet was the sixth-largest Swiss watchmaker in 2020 by revenue. Patek Philippe and Rolex don’t publish revenue figures.

Production Halts

The company said last year it would stop producing its popular cheap replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15202ST and replace the steel watch with a new model. That followed rival Patek Philippe saying it would stop producing its Nautilus Reference 5711, its most sought after steel watch.

Hopeful buyers of both super clone watches online had been subjected to long waiting lists and soaring values in the second-hand market that only increased with news of the end of production.
