Audemars Piguet's Code 11:59 Automatic Flying Tourbillon 38mm luxury replica watches features vibrant gemstone dials.
Take a trip back to the Stone Age: the compact Code 11.59 trio features dials of malachite, sodalite, and ruby root stone, setting the backdrop for a flying tourbillon.
If one were to succinctly capture the latest trends in watchmaking, it would be compact, unisex case sizes, vibrant colors, and gemstone dials. Audemars Piguet keeps pace with the times with the latest trio of compact 38mm Code 11.59 Automatic Flying Tourbillon watches, featuring vibrant dials sourced from around the world. As part of the brand's 150th anniversary celebrations, these new models demonstrate that small cases and complex functions are not incompatible.
To cater to smaller wrists, Audemars Piguet launched the Code 11:59 in 2023, featuring a 38mm case, a thickness of just 9.6mm, and a textured dial. Following the date display watch, Audemars Piguet's ultra-thin 2968 Caliber (also known as RD# 3) is now featured in the 38mm Code 11.59. This movement is one of the lightest, and once the thinnest, tourbillon complication movements on the market. high quality watches replica
These three new watches fully embody the gemstone dial trend that was popular in the 1960s, of which Piaget was a leading figure. During this same period, Audemars Piguet also incorporated gemstone dials into its product line, recently launching a stunning 37mm Royal Oak with a turquoise dial.
Crafted from paper-thin red ruby root from Tanzania, blue sodalite from Brazil, and captivating green malachite from Zambia, the vibrant dials complement the precious metal cases, enhancing their brilliance. The ruby root is housed in white gold, the sodalite in rose gold, and the malachite in yellow gold. The multifaceted case features distinctive lugs, a thin bezel, an octagonal case middle, and a crown, all enhanced by satin-brushed and brightly polished finishes. Water resistance remains at 30 meters, and the crown's design has been recently refined, with a more pronounced fluting. panerai Luminor fake watches
The dial omits applied hour markers, allowing the gemstones to fully display their unique textures. An aperture at 6 o'clock, framed in the same gold as the case, reveals a one-minute flying tourbillon that oscillates at a frequency of 3 Hz. Supported only from below, the flying tourbillon's impressive appearance is undeniable. The semi-skeletonized hour and minute hands are also crafted from gold, with luminescent tips. The round brass minute track is finished in opaline white, matching the hue of the gemstone dial, and is accented with gold numerals.
Designed by AP for watches under 41 mm, the 2968 caliber debuted in the Royal Oak RD#3 in 2022 (first in a 39 mm and then in a 37 mm). This ultra-light titanium tourbillon movement, measuring just 3.4 mm thick and boasting a 50-hour power reserve, features a peripheral drive and a high-amplitude escapement for enhanced energy distribution and precision. The sapphire crystal on the caseback reveals the skeletonized bridges of Caliber 2968, the 22K gold oscillating weight (the same material as the case), and the signature tirés decoration on the mainplate and bridges, replacing the traditional Côtes de Genève.
The alligator leather strap in the same colorway is secured with a gold triple folding clasp and can be interchanged with a rubber-coated strap available from the brand. Audemars Piguet replica watches
