　　hate it).

2 extremes of Audemars Piguet replica

　　Undeniably,

　　AP owns a very unique manufacturing plant.

　　This is a high-end brand that is still“nepotism”.

　　Compared to Vacheron Constantin and A.

　　Lange&Sohne are both owned by the Richemont group(the group that owns other brands such as Cartier,

　　Panerai,

　　Dunhill or some fashion brands)and like Patek Philippe,

　　today is still the an independent brand,

　　sold to the Stern family about 100 years ago.

　　However,

　　the owner of the AP is not the most interesting question of the 175-year-old manufacturer.

　　The question that many readers are most interested in is:Who are the customers of Audemars Piguet replica watches?

　　There are two main customer extremes of Audemars Piguet replica,

　　which are collectors(NST)and replica watches lovers.

　　Collectors are people who spend a very long time watching,

　　researching,

　　collecting replica watches,

　　and are members of long-standing specialized forums like TimeZone or PuristS.

　　They know well-known names that don’t even appear now,

　　or for the most part”strange”like Sir Walt Odets(a psychologist with a limitless passion for watches,a fierce critic of Rolex.).

　　A collector is also someone who knows whether a watch is polished or original,

　　or is argumentative enough to defend his or her watch in an argument.

　　They respect Patek Philippe with the brand’s history,

　　or are aware of the importance and charm of vintage Rolex watches,

　　but to pay for it,

　　only buy watches according to their own taste.

　　own likes.

　　So who are the so-called“watch lovers”?They are probably people who know the surface of luxury brands,

　　and are often attracted by the power of the brand.

　　They can be easily reached by their resellers,

　　friends,

　　social media and advertising.

　　Both collectors”and watch lovers buy and choose Audemars Piguet,

　　but it could be for different models or for different reasons.

　　We start with collectors first,

　　who buy AP because of its history of complicated functional pocket watches.

　　In addition,

　　another reason is that AP’s factory in Le Brassus is at the forefront of materials and techniques,

　　displaying”unthinkable”watches,

　　such as the point wristwatch.

　　the first bell in 1892,

　　or the Jumping Hour*function in 1921,

　　the first Skeleton dial pocket watch in 1934,

　　the ultra-thin perpetual calendar wristwatch with central rotor in 1978,

　　the 1986 ultra-thin tourbillon automatic,

　　the first”grande and petite sonnerie”*super wristwatch in 1994,

　　the 1996 super-complicated automatic watch,

　　the wristwatch with the equation of time and The first perpetual calendar in 2000 and 2009 was a high-frequency oscillating watch with a DualBalance.

　　The in-house automatic Caliber 3120,

　　developed for the Audemars Piguet replica 15400,

　　is one of the most“pressurized”movements in the world.

　　These are attractive points for“Deep”collectors that are hard to duplicate with other types of AP buyers.

　　Next is the“extreme”customer who“loves replica watches”as I mentioned above.

　　It can be said that this is the majority of customers when buying Audemars Piguet replica products,

　　they approach AP through resellers,

　　media,social networks,etc.

　　The following example is about a TV show.

　　Entourage,

　　a very popular TV show and has a large audience.

　　The Entourage program has spread the AP wave to many celebrities from all walks of life from Hollywood,

　　music,

　　sports and successful business people.

　　All thanks to one event below:

　　Presenter Ari Gold,

　　who later became a media mogul,

　　was presented with a solid gold Royal Oak Chronograph,

　　describing it as“the best watch in the world”.

　　AP results sweet victory in the communication plan when introduced to the group of successful customers following Entourage.

　　After that,

　　some of the guests to the show also wore APs.

　　The audience once suspected AP of paying guests to wear watches on broadcast,

　　but in later conversations,

　　brand representatives revealed that not a single watch was rented to be worn on television,

　　only Only the Royal Oak was given to Mr.Ari.

　　The Offshore watch,

the“joke”of the Swiss watch industry

　　Today,

　　when collectors opt for Royal Oaks like“Jumbos”or complicated models like perpetual calendars,

　　a large number of customers opt for Offshore watches.

　　However,

　　when Offshore was born,

　　it was laughed at by many people,

　　considered a joke in the Swiss watch industry.

　　Offshore was introduced in 1993 as a modern sport watch with a chronograph function.

　　The Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph was designed by young AP designer Emmanuel Gueit,

　　now 45 years old.

　　At that time,

　　the 22-year-old Emmanuel worked under the head of design of Jacqueline Dimier,

　　the successor of the legendary Gerald Genta,

　　and the CEO of AP at the time was Sir Stephen Urquhart.

　　Sir Urquahart told Gueit that we needed a”Royal Oak for Young Men”Model,

　　as sales of the regular models were on the decline.

　　Gueit’s idea was an oversized,

　　waterproof and luxury chronograph,

　　which was completely foreign to Audemars Piguet replica and the watch industry at the time(what was the use of a chronograph when there was a watch already).Diver,dedicated diving?).

　　The case is like that no one made high-end luxury sports replica watches until 1972,

　　the Audemars Piguet replica Royal Oak.

　　Internally,

　　even though Audemars Piguet replica wasn’t sure this new concept was viable,

　　the project,

　　nicknamed the”beast”was delayed more than five times.

　　The main reason is because Gueit wants to introduce new materials,

　　mainly Silicon for the buttons and crown.

　　In addition,

　　Audemars Piguet replica does not make a machine specifically for Offshore because it is 42mm in diameter and quite thick.

　　A movement based on Jaeger Lecoultre’s movement with the Modul Chronograph.

　　The machine was placed in an anti-magnetic ring,

　　which later became the communication strength of the Offshore brand in the early years of its sale.

　　Sir Urquhart intended to introduce this”youth”Royal Oak expansion in 1992 on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Royal Oak,

　　but the timing of the introduction did not go as expected.

　　It was not until the BaselWorld event in 1993 that the Offshore was introduced to the public.

　　The results were really bad when everyone turned their faces away,

　　even Gueit told journalist Miguel Seabra that”Sir Gerald Genta rushed over and yelled you guys destroyed my Royal Oak!”

　　Similar to the response to Sir Geral Genta’s Royal Oak in 1972,

　　the introduction of Offshore was subject to a great deal of skepticism and criticism.

　　Gueit also said that Max Busser,

　　then head of product development at JLC,

　　said Gueit was crazy and no one would buy such monsters.

　　However,

　　M.Busser was wrong,

　　the Offshore(the official name after selling the first 100 pieces doesn’t have the word Offshore on the case back,these are extremely rare collectables worth to date.today)will soon become the most luxurious“super product”in the world,

　　ushering in a new era of design.
