Audemars Piguet Replica CODE 11.59 watch duo covered with sparkling diamonds
Introduced in 2019, audemars piguet replica‘s CODE 11.59 collection marked the Swiss brand’s first major product launch in 20 years. When it was first released, the collection consisted of 13 models divided into 3 in-house movements and 41mm cases. But with the characteristic case design, it seems that Audemars Piguet has implicitly expressed, CODE 11.59 is a watch design that does not distinguish between men and women.
New to the brand’s website in January of this year, two CODE 11.59 models with model number 15210 have made a name for themselves because of the presence of more than 1,000 decorative brilliant-cut diamonds. This is also the first time that the Audemars Piguet brand offers a highly jeweled version of the CODE 11.59 series.
CODE 11.59 has a shell structure that looks complicated. The octagonal mid-case is sandwiched by a slim bezel and circular back. There are 473 brilliant-cut diamonds (~2.69 carats). The distinctive feature of the case is the octagonal middle case, as if paying homage to the octagonal bezel design so familiar on the iconic Royal Oak watch.
When viewed from the side, we can see that the connecting rod is hollowed out with a solder joint to the bezel of the bezel. Every surface of the case is paved with diamonds, from the lugs to the octagonal center bezel and even the notches on the crown.
To be able to penetrate every nook and cranny of the watch case, Audemars Piguet Replica has selected diamonds of different sizes for each specific location. The most distinguishing feature is the smaller diamond on the outer edge of the lug, from the bezel pulling down to the wire.
Diamonds will not leave the heart of the newly released Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 watch. Against the white or rose gold base of the dial are 612 diamonds (~2.3 carats) radiating from the center like rays of sunlight. Almost as if a fumé or gradient dial is darker in color running to the edge, the diamonds are smaller in the center and increase in size as they spread to the bezel.
Specifically, the diamonds are graded into 6 different diameters, from ~0.65 to ~1.10mm, used to create the concentric circle pattern. The diamonds are held in place by small pins located next to each other. And when they are interspersed with diamonds, the light scattering effect becomes especially splendid, like twinkling little stars. To exaggerate the scattering of light from the gem, the Audemars Piguet Replica brand decided to use a domed sapphire crystal for the new CODE 11.59 design.
The presence of diamonds made Audemars Piguet aware that the brand needed to treat the dial more delicately so as not to lose its perfect sparkle. Whether the selected version is in white or rose gold, the manufacturer also arranges an additional external area to accommodate the hour markers, the brand name and the words Swiss Made. On the white gold version, this area will be made of rhodium, while on the rose gold version, the material will remain the same.
Inside the dial, there are still Arabic numerals. The middle of the numbers continues to be covered with small diamonds, showing that the company wants to deliver an quintessential design that has been carefully aligned.
Bold with jewels, the two new Audemars Piguet Replica Code 11.59 watches are equipped with a satin-tone strap. The white gold version will have a matte-finished calfskin leather strap in blue-gray while the rose gold version has a gentle and elegant beige strap. At the end of the strap is a folding buckle, also decorated with brilliant-cut diamonds.
Inside the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 model number 15210 is the in-house AP 4309 movement with a power reserve of 70 hours. Behind the watch is a sapphire bottom, allowing the wearer to easily observe the finely finished machine details such as sharp Côtes de Genève veins, polished or brushed metal surfaces, circular veins on a large area background. with shiny diagonal bevels. Particularly the 22k rose gold rotor is the most prominent on the back.
