Audemars Piguet replica Kasparov Chronograph-Technical Sheet

　　Reference unveiled in 1997 on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Royal Oak,

　　faithful to the size of the first Royal Oak”Jumbo”ref.5402(39MM),

　　the first generation of Royal Oak chronograph is now enjoying a strong revival of interest from collectors.

　　Touching the original design of a watchmaking icon is often a challenge and remains a perilous task.

　　Although the first complications in the Royal Oak surfaced as early as the early 80s with the Day-Date ref.25572,

　　audemars piguet replica will take nearly 25 years to develop its design by housing two push buttons on the outside of its case.

　　Faithful to the original“Jumbo”diameter of 39MM,

　　Audemars Piguet replica succeeded in housing one of the thinnest self-winding chronograph calibers ever made of its time.

　　Often compared to the Rolex Daytona 116520 and marketed during a similar period for 14 years(1998-circa 2011),

　　the first self-winding Royal Oak chronograph from the Audemars Piguet replica manufacture now out of production is a collector’s watch in its own right.

　　A model particularly fond of chess player Garry Kasparov(Audemars Piguet replica ambassador since 1996)maintaining close relations with the Swiss manufacturer,

　　collectors will go so far as to nickname this watch after him.

　　Mini memo:How to date an Audemars Piguet replica and fake rolex uk(all models combined)by its serial number?

　　NB:it is possible to observe a discrepancy between the serial number(date of manufacture)and the date of sale written on the papers;some models may remain in the showcase for some time.

　　The model will undergo subtle evolutions and different variations,

　　in particular of materials,

　　dials and bracelets.

Dials:

　　We can note a difference in the upholstery of dials between the first series as well as the later ones.

　　We then speak of”small tapestry”for the very first E series blue dial circa 1998 to circa 2003 retaining the attributes of a vintage Royal Oak such as the reference 5402 or even 14790(dial produced by the dial-maker Stern Création,

　　bracelet manufactured by Gay Freres).

　　The dial offers perfect symmetry with its three bronze-coloured strapping sub-dials.

　　Some of these dials have the ability to turn brown by developing a“Tropical”patina.

　　A yellow gold version has the same attributes for the first series,

　　we can note that the indexes will change shape on the gold model in later series:

　　The later series have a wider tapestry,

　　we then speak of”Great Tapestry”introduced by the white dial quickly completing the collection of references 25860ST

　　Unlike its historical rival(Rolex Daytona 116520),

　　the model benefits from a date window housed between 4 and 5 o’clock as well as an 18K gold oscillating weight.

　　The dial is applied with the Audemars Piguet logo at 12 o’clock,

　　whose index in the shape of an upturned triangle makes it possible to recognize Kasparov chronographs at a glance.

　　The reference 25860ST will be replaced circa 2008 by the ref.26300ST with similar features,

　　introducing new colors;as well as a new case and a different system of pushers.
