Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Grande Sonnerie Supersonnerie 41mm 26397NB.OO.D002KB.01

 

Audemars Piguet Starwheel code 11.59

The watchmakers at Le Brassus may have just taken a modern approach to traditional manufacturing, perfectly proving the point of the Code 11.59 collection.high quality watches replica

To say that the Code 11.59, which Audemars Piguet debuted in 2019, was a bit controversial would be an understatement.

In short, it's a matter of perception. More specifically, with an iconic watch model like the Royal Oak flourishing, the watch community may have mistakenly assumed that the new Code 11.59 would be an instant disruptive hit.

However, Audemars Piguet is more focused on providing a new canvas to create design possibilities. After all, on the face of it, the Code 11.59 appears to be a relatively simple round timepiece, with understated elegance in the hollowed-out “frame” lugs and doubly curved sapphire crystal.

However, if you look at the new Code 11.59 from Audemars Piguet Starwheel, I predict you'll start to see these design possibilities take off in a circular format and the execution of the lug and crystal innovations not only fits perfectly but actually enhances the overall package.Wholesale replica watches

First, a little history
Although there are more than a few contemporary incarnations of the rotating satellite/carousel chronograph (well, mainly the Urwerk), the so-called "wandering time" complication has a long history. Audemars Piguet can claim legitimate sincerity when talking about its modern revival.

In a press release for Code 11.59 Starwheel, Sébastian Vivas, Director of Heritage and Museums at Audemars Piguet, explained: "This watch was invented in 1655 at the behest of Pope Alexander VII, who Insomnia fueled by the ticking of the clock, the Wandering Hours complication, rediscovered by Audemars Piguet in 1991, combines history, technical challenge, design and poetry."fashion replica watches

modern star
Audemars Piguet's Starwheel interpretation of the wandering hour mechanism adorned many watches until the early 2000s. Now, the gorgeously flat, slim, elegant execution of the mechanism finds an equally modern home in the 41mm Code 11.59 case.

The three circular time scale satellite discs of the new Code 11.59 Starwheel echo the overall circular design, the open lugs complement the open structure of the movement, and the hyperboloid sapphire crystal mirror magnifies and perfectly displays the stunning rotation of the entire universe. Blue aventurine dial face. Form, function, do you smell what I'm cooking here?

Three black opal aluminum discs (each with four hour markers) rotate slowly within the metal frame, rolling to the position of the arrow on each frame as it strikes between ten and two o'clock at the top Central 120-degree minute counter dial. At the same time, the entire three-disc turntable makes a 360-degree rotation every three hours. So, let's say, the disc with the 10 o'clock indicator is approaching the end of the 60-minute arc. This then means that the disc with the 11 o'clock marker has reached the beginning of the meter.luxury watches replica

The hours on each disc are a continuous staggered quartet to match the striking action. The central seconds hand encircles the 0 to 60 seconds scale on the outer dial, a unique tribute to the traditional way of telling time.

material world
This playful, sophisticated craft is made from equally glamorous materials. The blue aventurine dial face contrasts with the metallic/black Starwheel mechanism, giving it a subtle cosmic vibe without venturing into futurism. Additionally, gleaming 18K white gold provides the perfect clean visual contrast to modernize the approach and adorn the bezel, lugs, case back, hands and buckle.

Black ceramic darkens the picture while still lightening the crown and the case middle sandwiched between the white gold bezel and case back (total case thickness 10.7 mm). A technical black rubber-coated textured strap secures this machine to your wrist, but again, the zeitgeist never strays into overly tech-futuristic territory. I applaud restraint.

The Starwheel display is integrated into the watch's self-winding Caliber 4310 movement, which offers a 70-hour power reserve.

If you were initially confused by the code 11.59, this timepiece may well be your copycat moment to crack the code.replica watches for men
