Audemars Piguet and Travis Scott launch Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “Cactus Jack” The rapper's brown ceramic "Chocolate AP." replica Audemars Piguet ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE

Rumors about a brown ceramic Royal Oak have been circulating for months, and Audemars Piguet (AP)'s latest model confirms them. However, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Skeleton “Cactus Jack” 41mm is not just a new color, but a limited edition of 200 pieces in collaboration with American rapper Travis Scott and his streetwear brand Cactus Jack.

What's interesting about the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “Cactus Jack” is more than just changing the dial color, which is usually the route limited editions go. Although it is based on the standard model, the “Cactus Jack” features a brown ceramic case and typography based on the musician's handwriting on the dial, complete with Cactus Jack's moon smiley logo.

It's worth noting that the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar “Cactus Jack” is just one part of AP's collaboration with Mr. Scott. Their collaboration also includes a range of apparel, including hoodies, T-shirts and hats, which will be sold on Cactus Jack's own retail website.high quality replica watches

While the “Cactus Jack” is essentially the same as the regular production ceramic skeleton, it looks completely different due to the case.

Normally I'm not a fan of brown ceramic, but this material makes this watch instantly special. This differentiation is a good thing, as there are many, many versions of the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar—the non-skeletonized ceramic models are already available in black, white, and blue.

One more version wouldn't hurt, especially since it's so well done. The writing and expressions on the dial add a touch of whimsy to this no-nonsense watch.

More broadly, the watch continues AP's embrace of pop culture, which began more than two decades ago with the launch of the first celebrity-themed limited edition (1999's Offshore End of Days). That appears to have accelerated recently as current CEO Francois-Henry Bennahmias prepares to depart. Prior to the "Cactus Jack", the brand had released the Royal Oak Matthew Williams series watch and the Royal Oak Spider-Man concept best luxury Watches. Time will tell if this takes the brand in the direction it wants, but it will certainly change the face of AP.

However, he is one of the few to have his own limited edition.

The Royal Oak “Cactus Jack” has the same dimensions as the standard model, but its case is made of brown ceramic, a first for Audemars Piguet. However, the case is not paired with a ceramic bracelet, but with a textured leather strap.buy replica watches

The dial retains the standard perpetual calendar layout, but replaces the usual typography with a font derived from Mr. Scott's handwriting. All calendar displays use this font, while the seconds hand at nine o'clock has been replaced with the Cactus Jack logo.

Equally whimsical is the moon phase display, with its twin moons in the form of a Cactus Jack smiley face with eyes and mouth sewn together. All luminous markers on the dial glow green, except for the smiley face, which glows blue in the dark. best replica watches

Inside is the calibration. 5135, AP's historic perpetual calendar movement. This is an ultra-thin movement with Cal. 2120/2121 as the base, with the perpetual calendar module on top. This version of the movement has been skeletonized to reveal much of the mechanics, especially on the front, where much of the calendar mechanism is visible.

The movement is essentially the same as the standard version, but the 22K gold oscillating weight has been skeletonized to form the Cactus Jack logo. replica Jacob & Co. Astronomia Solar
