Pink gold audemars piguet royal oak automatic replica has long since been recognised for the exceptional quality of its skeleton movements. The palette of colours ranges from grey to anthracite – an elegantly understated shade achieved by an anthracite galvanic surface treatment. These dominant grey hues make a fine contrast with the colour of the gilt brass gear trains and that of the 22-carat solid gold oscillating weight, which is also openworked and stamped with the AP monogram. This new all grey-clad self-winding Calibre 3129 is also magnificently highlighted by the 39 mm-diameter case housing it and featuring a transparent back, as well as an entirely openworked anthracite dial with applied and facetted gold hour-markers.
The Manufacture in Le Brassus has distinguished itself on countless occasions in the exercise of this delicate discipline. This distinctive craft calls for a blend of technical and artistic skills : technical, in that skeletonising a movement means preserving its structure so as to maintain its precision and its reliability ; and artistic, in that this openworking of the various parts is accompanied by extremely meticulous decorative work that calls for considerable dexterity and experience.
The new Openworked self-winding audemars piguet royal oak automatic replica is entirely in tune with this approach, even though its movement has been crafted in a very different spirit. This resolutely modern skeleton-type watch reflects a more architectural, more contemporary stylistic evolution. The high-end finishing, featuring understated execution and hand-drawn file strokes, echoes the case surface treatment and the satin-brushed bezel.
The resolutely contemporary Openworked self-winding Royal Oak by Audemars Piguet draws its strength from an authentic alliance between traditional and modern elements. Representing a unique stylistic exercise, the art of skeletonisation is the exclusive preserve of a handful of watch manufacturers.
The creation of this Openworked self-winding audemars piguet royal oak replica stemmed from the simple premise that this sophisticated horological exercise deserved to be reinvented with a blend of audacity and creativity in order to appeal to a new clientele.
This approach is expressed through restrained, pure cut-outs, straight satin-brushing on the mainplate and on the bridges, and an intensification of colours, contrasts and shades achieved by entirely hand-crafted bevelling.
With this in mind, the work accomplished by audemars piguet replica in developing the new Calibre 3129 driving the Openworked self-winding Royal Oak was clearly based on a decision to break with traditions, leading to a model featuring pure and contemporary lines that set it apart from traditional skeletonised models, and sublimate the Royal Oak collection for which it was designed.
