In 1874, Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet，two childhood friends reconnected in the Vallee de Joux in Switzerland. A year later in 1875, they decided to run a business together. They had no idea that their namesake brand would one day become one of the top companies in their industry. This is the origin and history of fake Audemars Piguet. 
Both Audemars and Piguet grew up in the Vallee de Joux, where had deep horological roots. They were born in watchmaker families and had been learning watchmaking since childhood. Each had unique strengths in different areas of watchmaking. They were the perfect match and established their first workshop.
Watch Innovation Spanning the Centuries
In 1892, the brand made its first groundbreaking creation with the advent of the first-minute repeater wristwatch. Just a few years later in 1899, they debuted the "Grande Complication" pocket fake watch. The model featured seven unique functions, including a grand and small strike, minute repeater, alarm, perpetual calendar, deadbeat seconds, chronograph with jumping seconds, and split-seconds hand.
The company had been through changes when both founders passed away in the span of a year, from 1918 to 1919. But the business remained in the capable hands of the founders' sons, Paul Louis Audemars and Paul Edward Piguet. they are committed to the family tradition of innovation. They created the thinnest pocket replica watches caliber in 1925, the first skeletonized pocket watch in 1934, and the thinnest wristwatch in 1946.
Ten years later, the flagship model went through an upgrade brought about by designer Emmanuel Gueit, the larger Royal Oak Offshore was born. Though these strikingly unconventional models met polarized feedback upon their initial debuts, they have finally defined the brand. Replica Audemars Piguet has never stopped innovating. In the celebration of the company's 125th anniversary at the beginning of the century, they unveiled a highly complicated model showcasing the Equation of Time, sunrise, sunset, and a perpetual calendar mechanism. No matter what you choose from the brand's famous fake watch series, like the Royal Oak, or one of their highly complex complications, you know you're wearing an icon when you sport an Audemars Piguet.
As its name suggests, the most outstanding trait of the President is the day and date windows on the dial. As a matter of fact, the inaugural Day-Date from the 1950s was the world's first wristwatch to display the day of the week written out in full, along with the date of the month. Today, in addition to English, the day of the week is available in a range of languages including French, Spanish, German, and many others.
Powering the Day-Date 36 is the Rolex Caliber 3155 with 48 hours of power reserve. Similar to all modern Rolex calibers, this automatic caliber is a manufacturing movement built completely in-house. Not only is the caliber COSC-certified, but it has also undergone a battery of tests conducted by Rolex, thus earning its "Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified" label. Besides, owing to the construction of the Oyster case, fluted case-back, and screw-down winding crown, it's water-resistant to 330 feet (100 meters).
Several years ago, Rolex equipped their new Day-Date 40 collection with a new generation movement that boasted a -2/+2 accuracy rate—well beyond the -4/+6 seconds per day maximum allowed by COSC. Since then, the brand has rolled out the new -2/+2 accuracy rate across all their new watches.
Given its iconic style, rich heritage, and status, the Day-Day will forever reign in the luxury watch space. And the white gold Rolex President is a special superb version. What are your ideas on the white gold Rolex Day-Date?
Modeled after an early Sea Rambler model designed and built in partnership with the famed dive equipment manufacturer Aqua Lung, this 300-piece edition is about as true-to-original as it gets. Aside from its bubble domed sapphire crystal and COSC chronometer-certified ETA 2824 self-winding movement, the Silver Lung is a perfectly faithful recreation that simply didn't require retooling in the same way that many modern reissues usually do.
The relatively thin case profile, broad bezel, and short case lugs make the 42mm diver wear much smaller on the wrist than you'd expect from stock imagery, and the brand's sleek beads-of-rice band is to this day one of the most comfortable on the market, easily rivaling things like the Rolex Jubilee. In this Silver Lung form, you're effectively getting the best of both worlds from a design and wearability standpoint. Its sunray silver dial is much more neutral than the bold orange of the limited edition Black Lung that released last year, yet the old-school Aqua Lung U.S. Divers logo in black and yellow adds the right touch of historical throwback that helps the piece stand out when compared to the standard SUB 300 Searambler it is based on.
With so few pieces being launched, the lucky thing is that DOXA isn't at risk of saturating the market here the way countless other brands have with their limited edition models, leaving the only question of how quickly these Silver Lung pieces will take to sell out. The original Black Lung reissue from last year vanished within 24-hours, whereas the polarizing bright yellow Poseidon model that launched this year took a bit longer, which was understandable considering a bright yellow watch just doesn't have the same level of mass-market appeal.
In the automotive industry, and other lifestyle topics, a general obsession with mechanical creations remains the common thread with over a decade of experience as a journalist and editor covering the replica watches watchmaking. Having worked for a broad range of industry and general interest publications all over these years, Justin has developed a sincere appreciation for many other watch brands and styles, together with an ever-growing interest in the vintage watch market.
Rolex amazing watches are one of the most attractive luxury items in the world. So, consequently, there is a huge market for watches. Most of these fraudulent watches are made in China but research shows that production is spreading throughout all of Asia. The modern Rolex Datejust collection and Rolex Submariner are prime targets for these replicas.
Even experienced dealers can get fooled by bogus watches. Some knock-offs are easy to spot right away, while other, more complicated, replica Rolex watches may be much more challenging to identify. With that said, it can be hard for a novice to know how to tell if a Rolex is not original.

Rolex is one of the most amazing luxury brands on the planet famous for quality, durability, style, and prestige. The company uses the best steel on earth called "904L steel", which is more rust and corrosion-resistant. The replica Rolex also makes alloys and rolls its own precious metals to ensure the exact integrity of every fake watch. Everything is crafted to absolute perfection, so take a better look at the case, crown, hands, bezel, bracelet, and clasp - if anything comes across as sub-par quality, then you can be pretty sure it's not the real deal.
One of the main standouts of Basel 2019, the latest model to get the replica Rolex's popular rainbow bezel treatment is the fake Ever-rose Daytona, and it is a knockout. On top of the usual Daytona awesomeness, you get 36 baguette sapphires on the bezel and another 56 diamonds on the case. The final touch is the pink gold crystal registers. You need to see this watch IRL to appreciate just how amazing it is.
The second and indeed final, rainbow set watch on this list could not be any more stylistically different to the Daytona. Hublot's big tonneau, the Spirit of Big Bang pairs its gem-set bezel with a barely-there sapphire case. And even if the watch is transparent, there is zero chance this replica Hublot is slipping under the radar.
There is so much going on here. There's a green mother of pearl dial, an exquisitely sculpted microscopic gold forest. And that's before we get to the dude riding on a chariot carried by a butterfly. But you know what, even amid all that opulence, the exceptional sub-dial, and fully set with baguette-cut diamonds steals the show.
Holding this replica watch was another real highlight of Baselworld for me. Boasting a whopping 950 diamonds, weighing up to an equally whopping 22.68 carats, this watch is complete decadence. But there's more to it than just the frosting. The movement is Chanel's third in-house effort, the impressively skeletonized Calibre 3. As far as I am concerned, though, the real highlight was that bracelet, which, even though it's heavy with gold and ice, moves as supplely as silk. 
There's pink, and then there's PINK. Franck Muller's Gravity, with its supersized tourbillon, is already a head-turner, but case it in the most bubblegum of bubblegum pinks and cover it with a liberal dusting of diamonds and you've got a watch that's a flat-out showstopper. Yes, it's billed as a lady's watch, and yes, it's a quartz model. But can I see myself wearing this 35.6mm steel watch with 46 diamonds weighing down the bezel? Of course, that's the sure thing.
This fake 34mm Rolex Chronometer 4448 is an amazing example of an understated watch worth boasting about, which features a rose gold casing and a nice patina. This replica watch doesn't need any introduction, yet commands attention with its finely crafted details and undeniable style.
No matter if you're pairing your Date with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, an Italian wool suit, or a tuxedo, the brushed steel finish and stunning white dial make this watch that can do it all.
The popular model has one of the longest uninterrupted life spans of any reference and is the one that has gone through the least number of upgrades or improvements. While Rolex's sports range underwent massive changes in style, the Explorer soldiered on unadorned, upholding the brand's tool-like origins pretty much single-handed. A testament to its timeless appeal, this 35mm watch is the perfect example of what every adventurous and refined mid-sized watch aspire towards.
The fake Bubble-back is one of the first automatic winding Rolex watches, which comes with the personified history. It is also one of the most traditional vintage models in the Rolex catalog. Of course, its signature feature is the Bubble-back case, featured by a thicker, protruding case. The other version pictured here features a two-tone stainless steel case with a smooth yellow gold bezel. Mid-sized watches like the Oyster Perpetual 3313 are timeless, attracting both replica watch fans and fashion icons alike.
The partnership came after Bryant had collaborated with the boutique luxury brand Nubeo, a Swiss watchmaker that subsequently went under during the recession. Number and Bryant had actually partnered to create their own Black Mamba watch, but it never got quite off the ground. We got the news that Bryant was excited about the partnership because of the brand's keen attention to detail, and when the Hublot came knocking not long after, it seemed like the perfect next step — particularly with a company that had such a strong and innovative reputation.
The first Black Mamba watch released by Hublot and Bryant was back in 2013. The replica watch is outfitted with the HUB 4248 self-winding, 28 jewels, mechanical chronograph Movement, housed within an oversized 48mm black ceramic case. But it's the face of this replica watch that draws you right in — black, gold, and purple were used as a homage to the Lakers, the stunning mechanics of the watch peeking through the face.
Bryant took part in the fake Hublot team for their uniqueness in the luxury watch brand market, and that shines through in their 2015 Big Bang Unico Retrograde Chronograph Kobe "Vino" Bryant. Like the first watch created in his honor, 'Vino' is off of another one of the basketball player's nicknames. 
The most attractive part of the fake watch is the Bordeaux red face, and the raised, 47mm, 18k gold, and black ceramic bezel. Under the face is a Hublot Unico caliber HUB1261 automatic movement, comprised of 385 parts, which you can peer at through a green-tinted sapphire crystal on the back. The face of the watch almost looks like a basketball with a bumpy texture added to add dimension. The watch itself is a beautiful juxtaposition of such perceptions, contrasting a black ceramic bezel against a lustrous face.
