Introducing the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Self-winding Flying Tourbillon Slim RD#3" 37mm
Paint me purple, this is a smaller RD#3. replica Audemars Piguet ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE
As part of Audemars Piguet's celebration of the Royal Oak's 50th birthday, it was recently announced that this is the new Royal Oak Self-Winding Flying Tourbillon Slim RD#3, which has a very purple dial. While this is far from the first time the brand has outfitted the Royal Oak with a purple dial, the dial isn't the only change to the RD#3 platform.
As Mark teased when he introduced the 39mm blue dial 26670 in April, the new 26660ST wraps a metallic purple dial in a 37mm stainless steel case. Maintaining the same 8.1mm thickness as the 39mm RD#3, the new 37mm model is also water-resistant to 50 meters and comes with a steel bracelet with the usual AP folding clasp.
The calibre is also the same one found in the AP ultra-thin (just 3.4mm) self-winding calibre 2968, released earlier this year, which runs at 3 Hz and offers a 50-hour power reserve that you can get through It watches the lovely titanium flying tourbillon set at six o'clock on the dial.replica swiss watches
Audemars Piguet calls the dial colour "plum", while the 26660 features a petite Tapisserie pattern with white gold luminous hour markers and hands. The watch comes with a display case back to admire the 50th anniversary rotor design.
For AP enthusiasts and speculators, the RD series (stands for research and development) represents Audemars Piguet's collaboration with Royal Oak. Offering RD#3 in 37mm is a huge vote of confidence by AP in the size of the Royal Oak, which has the same proportions as the Jumbo and has become a sweet spot.
While I may forever fall in love with the looks and premium execution of the 2018 RD#2, this platinum 41mm perpetual calendar features a clean, modern dial design and only (check notes...) 6.3mm thick case, RD#3 It does feel more like the heart of the Royal Oak, doesn't it? Maybe it started with the Jumbo silhouette, or maybe both the 26670 and 26660 are made of steel, but both feel like royal oaks that have been around for a while, albeit special creations.best replica watches uk
While I don't think I'd call the bright purple dial and tourbillon-equipped Royal Oak a dainty, in the Royal Oak world, the RD#3 manages to fit nicely in with some added "if you know, you know" call. For the few collectors who can actually buy this very rare watch that's already hard to come by, the RD#3's big stick has to offer some appeal. If you want to dive into what makes RD#3 so special, don't skip this story.
As an extension of RD#3, this new variant is more than just a new dial color. Featuring a smaller case and plum colour, the RD#3 26660 has a unique appeal that complements the previously released 39mm model while continuing to launch a special model for the Royal Oak's 50th anniversary.replica Zenith Chronomaster Open watches
