Best Selling Replica Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Minute Repeater

Back in 2014, it was as a concept watch that AP hadn’t yet demonstrated a desire to sell to collectors when we first covered it which would later be famous as the replica Audemars Piguet Supersonnerie. The team in Le Brassus’s ostensible goal was to push the boundaries of chiming fake watch acoustics and to provide tangible evidence that the quest for continuous improvement in minute repeaters was as alive as ever. 
The AP set up a sound-proof booth next year in which they could demonstrate the superlative tonality and volume of the new concept watch. I will always remember hearing this minute repeater for the first time, and that’s no hyperbole. The paradox of a minute repeater that chimes louder and clearer on the wrist than off was lost on no one. I would like to know exactly how it worked – and I don’t think I was just the only one.
The lucky thing is, Jack went in-depth on the subject back in 2016, writing the best explanation out there of how Audemars Piguet developed the Supersonnerie and why it’s such a very special repeater. But the story doesn’t stop there.
The Audemars Piguet presented the coolest replica watch each year that you possibly haven’t heard of. On the outside, it’s a platinum Jules Audemars dress watch with a smoky blue enamel dial and white gold hands. But inside, it’s every bit the triple-patented Supersonnerie we know and love.
Acoustically, can the new Jules Audemars Minute repeater match the funky concept watch that preceded it? Considering that it has a platinum case and enamel dial, you’d expect some loss of sound quality from the original, since it was built just for optimum tonality. However, after hearing this watch in a crowded booth at SIHH, I can confirm that it is much louder than your typical minute repeater, and, just like the concept watch, it’s louder on the wrist than off.
This fake watch makes perfect sense in business. It looks like your typical minute repeater, and chances are it’s the kind of design most collectors have in mind when they plunk down six figures for a chiming watch. Of course, the case is large, at 43mm in diameter and 13.15mm thick; but, then again, it’s not unusual for a traditional minute repeater to tip the scales in terms of size. These are not complications typically known for their slimness.
Flipping the Jules Audemars Minute Repeater over, you’ll find a beautiful relief engraving of a watchmaker at his bench. You’ll also see some perforations around this engraving. The Jules Audemars Minute Repeater is a normal replica watch for selling, but unsurprisingly AP says that very few will be made, and the price is rather affordable anyway.
