We have mucho respect for Audemars Piguet as a replica Tag Heuer watch manufacturer, we just think they go a little overboard sometimes on their limited edition pieces.We showed you a first generation Royal Oak a while back, and we even compared it to the hideous RO Offshore Survivor Chrono (the watch which garnered the description "it looks like a robot took a dump on a turtle".That is not to say there aren't good looking modern-day Royal Oaks, we found one in white here that is a real stunner.However a Royal Chrono is expensive, and we know people out there are looking for a deal.
This brings us to today's find.It is indeed an replica Bell & Ross watch Royal Oak, it is indeed good looking, and it actually rather affordable, relatively speaking of course.The watch is a contemporary version of the RO, not a chronograph, not an offshore, and certainly not a limited edition (which we think is a good thing, btw), but it does feature both day of the week and day of the month complications, not too shabby.It features the legendary AP textured dial, original integrated deployment clasp bracelet, and even the original AP boxes.It pre-owned but in excellent condition, and it is an automatic (unlike the other inexpensive RO we've featured).
replica Rolex Datejusts watchcase is a great size, 36x41mm, which puts this watch right where you'd want it to be for an understated but extremely desirable sport piece.The best part about this AP is that it is selling for only $6,650, which means you could be wearing this instead of that IWC Portuguese or Rolex Submariner you were thinking about.Click here for this Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Day Date at a very attractive price.Hodinkee in Audemars Piguet, Royal Oak Tuesday, May 12, 2009 at 8:57AM
