At the 2018 SIHH, Audemars Piguet introduced a green ceramic watch known as the “Combat.” This model comes with a matching camouflage green strap, which quickly attracted the interest of several replica watch manufacturers in the market. Some produced replicas using a quartz movement, but the quality was subpar. For those seeking an authentic 1:1 Swiss replica, the version made by the J12 factory is the way to go. In a short time, J12 has made two significant upgrades to this replica, resulting in the latest V2 edition. The watch has seen improvements in areas such as the bezel, date magnifier, and case back. Most notably, this Audemars Piguet green ceramic replica features the A3126 movement, which has been independently developed by the J12 factory and boasts exceptional accuracy and reliability. Additionally, J12 factory is offering a complimentary green rubber strap, although supplies are limited.
Audemars Piguet is known for its large case sizes, including the 2018 Combat model, which features a case diameter of 44mm and a thickness of nearly 16mm, nearly identical to the genuine version. The angular case of this watch is expertly crafted, with the brushing texture on the bezel and case surfaces aligned in the same direction, while the case edges are polished to a smooth finish. This high-quality case finish not only ensures excellent wearing comfort but also showcases the advanced watchmaking technology of J12. Indeed, no other replica watches on the market can match the level of case finish found in J12’s Audemars Piguet replicas; this is a truth you cannot deny if you own replicas from various manufacturers. The bezel of this Audemars Piguet Combat replica is entirely made of green ceramic, and the updated brushed finish of this V2 edition provides a visually appealing experience. The bezel and case back are securely fastened with eight screws running through the middle case, and the center of the case back features a see-through sapphire crystal. Overall, the case not only boasts a high-grade finish but also replicates the structure 1:1. Each part of the case on the replica is interchangeable with that of the genuine watch.
The checkered dial features a cream color, with stick hour markers that have a silver edge and a lume coating at the center. There are three black subdials, with the one at 12 o’clock dedicated to displaying small seconds, indicated by a small silver hand. The 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph counters located at 9 and 6 o’clock each have a small brown hand. All subdials are marked with white indicators. To the left of the date window at 3 o’clock, you’ll find an “AP” logo in silver, with “AUDEMARS PIGUET” printed in black below it. The central chronograph second hand also features a brown tip. The lume coating on the hour markers, as well as the hour and minute hands, emits a strong green light in the dark. The round date window at 3 o’clock displays a white date font against a black background, ensuring clear readability for the wearer. In summary, the dial of this replica Audemars Piguet not only boasts a high level of imitation but also features three subdials that function just like those on the genuine model.
The watch comes with a pair of camouflage green rubber straps. Both the green ceramic bezel and the camouflage green band impart a military vibe to this timepiece, appealing to many military watch enthusiasts. The strap features a brushed buckle with a satin-finished “AP” engraving. Amid the countless Audemars Piguet replica watches with uninspired designs that you may have grown weary of, this Audemars Piguet Combat replica in camouflage green is sure to capture your interest.
