Watch designers have always been able to derive surprising designs from various sources of inspiration. When discussing the American Dream, it is inevitable to mention Las Vegas, as it is renowned as a place where dreams can come true. Drawing inspiration from this vibrant and ceaselessly entertaining city, Audemars Piguet has successfully captured its essence and translated it into a remarkable wristwatch. The AP 26186SN.OO.D101CR.01 watch, in particular, is inspired by the allure of strip shows and is aptly named the “Strip Limited Edition.” Let us delve into this unique fusion of timekeeping and the world of gambling.
The stainless steel case of this replica watch is meticulously crafted with a DHL finishing, creating a sleek black design. The black dial features striking red markers and three sub-dials. The color combination of black and red perfectly captures the essence of Las Vegas, with black symbolizing the night and red representing the vibrant and colorful events that unfold during the city’s lively nights. Remarkably, all the functions on the dial operate flawlessly, just like the original watch. I will explain the reason behind this shortly.The main dial elegantly displays the hour, minute, and second chronograph hands, while the date window is positioned at the 3 o’clock position. The sub-dials serve the purpose of operating the chronograph function, except for the small second sub-dial located at 12 o’clock. The three buttons on the side of the watch are easily identifiable for adjusting the various functions. The middle crown is used for time and date adjustment, while the top button is for starting and stopping the chronograph, and the button below is for resetting it. All of these buttons are of the screw-in type, ensuring a secure and reliable operation.
As mentioned earlier, this replica Audemars Piguet watch functions identically to the original timepiece due to its upgraded clone movement, specifically the 3126 movement, which is a precise 1:1 replica watch of the original. Furthermore, this replica watch originates from the J12 factory, known for its exceptional quality. Rest assured, you won’t encounter any issues with the quality of this remarkable timepiece.
The bracelet of this watch is crafted from genuine crocodile leather, adorned with red stitching that creates a visually pleasing color combination.
