Audemars Piguet presents the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Starwheel watch

When Audemars Piguet debuted the Code 11.59 collection in 2019, the new collection was met with mixed public opinion. However, it's almost always destined to receive a mixed response simply because it's not a Royal Oak. That said, it was ultimately crucial for Audemars Piguet to release a new and different collection of watches, as it required a radical first step in the process of going from almost entirely synonymous with the Royal's iconic design. oak. Since AP Code 11.59 first appeared, many different variants have been released, and in my personal opinion, some of the most successful iterations are more complex and unconventional examples. These are often the best complements to the seemingly complex case designs that define the collection. The newest addition to the lineup is arguably the least traditional version of Code 11.59 proposed by the Associated Press. The new Code 11.59 watch from Audemars Piguet Starwheel features the collection's signature case in contrasting materials, with a wandering hour display and a blue aventurine dial.

The 41mm case is 10.7mm thick. Those familiar with the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 collection will immediately recognize its shape, with its skeletonized lugs and octagonal middle case sandwiched between a round bezel and a round case back. At first glance, the case looks like a traditional round watch; however, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that it actually offers a rather complex and subtle design. The bezel, lugs and caseback of the new Code 11.59 from Audemars Piguet Starwheel are crafted in 18k white gold, while the case middle and crown are in black ceramic, and the octagonal shape of the case middle is composed of polished bevels and satin-finished surfaces. The use of white gold and black ceramic creates an aesthetic and material contrast, as gold is thick, soft and traditional, while ceramic is light, hard and utterly modern. As with the other models in the collection, the signature push-pull crown works with the screw-down display case back and is water-resistant to 30 meters, while the dial is protected by a unique double-curved sapphire crystal. In this context, "hyperboloid" and "double dome" (as you'll often see it used in relation to the convex crystals of dive watches) don't mean anything. Although its inner surface is domed, it is also vertically curved from 6 o'clock to 12 o'clock. The two opposing orientations give it a striking look, adding a lot of dimension to the dial, but this is rarely conveyed adequately in the brand's own photos. replica Franck Muller

While the case of Audemars Piguet Starwheel's new Code 11.59 offers a novel combination of materials, the watch's dial and the way it tells the time is ultimately its most noteworthy feature. The three-dimensional walking time display with blue aventurine as the background continues the tradition of the walking time "star wheel" watch produced by Audemars Piguet in the 1990s. Audemars Piguet has reinterpreted this complication as a new party item in the Code 11.59 collection. Three slightly domed black discs are all in black PVD-treated aluminum and contain four of the 12-hour indicators. All discs rotate on their own axes, and as the entire central module rotates throughout the day, the current hour is displayed via numerals positioned at the top of the dial. The corresponding minute is indicated by a small black triangle next to the current hour, which points to the minute value on the curved minute track located at the top of the watch. Apart from the blue aventurine surface in the background, all the remaining dial elements appear in black and white monochrome to set off the case. The centrally mounted seconds hand is crafted from 18k white gold and has a curved tip that complements the domed contours of the three discs beneath it. All the remaining dial elements appear in black and white monochrome to complement the case.

The Code 11.59 watch from Audemars Piguet Starwheel is powered by the brand's self-winding Caliber 4310 movement. Based on the Caliber 4309 but adding a new module to provide its signature unconventional display, the Caliber 4310 is a 32-jewel movement made up of 261 parts, running at 28,800vph (4Hz), At least 70 hours of power reserve. The central module rotates the dial a full revolution every three hours, while each of the three black discs rotates independently to compensate for their changing positions, with the current hour always displayed on the right at the top of the dial. The movement itself is impressively finished (as you'd expect from an Audemars Piguet). Winding the movement is a skeletonized oscillating weight made of 22k rose gold, all of which are displayed through the watch's sapphire crystal caseback window. The new Code 11.59 from the Audemars Piguet Starwheel is a textured black rubber-coated strap with an 18k white gold pin buckle engraved with the Audemars Piguet logo rather than the normal AP monogram that appears on other buckles and buckles in the collection .

Like the Royal Oak, the Code 11.59 is inherently slightly divergent in its core design, though even those who aren't fans of its particular aesthetic can still appreciate the complexity of its case construction. That said, some of the biggest objections to the entire collection are the dial designs chosen for some of the less complicated models. Much more complex designs, such as the perpetual calendar and tourbillon skeleton models released recently, have been warmer overall (and come with significantly higher prices).

Aesthetically, this is quite a departure from the modern Audemars Piguet brand we've come to know in recent years, although it's not entirely unprecedented when you look at some of the models that exist in the company's archives. In fact, the Royal Oak will likely always be a fan favorite in the Audemars Piguet catalogue, but models such as the new Code 11.59 Starwheel suggest that the famous Swiss manufacturer should be known for its popular stainless steel integrated bracelet movement luxury replica watches .
