Audemars Piguet Unveils Refined Code 11.59 Collection in 18k Pink Gold

 Audemars Piguet has enriched its contemporary Code 11.59 collection with seven captivating new references of 2024, each crafted in luxurious 18k pink gold. This refined lineup showcases the brand's commitment to evolving the collection while preserving its distinctive aesthetic.

At the heart of the new offerings are time-and-date models available in two sizes: 38mm and 41mm. The 38mm variations feature stunning light blue or dark blue "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" dials, a nod to the legendary hue that graced the original 1972 Royal Oak. Accompanied by alligator and textured rubber straps, these watches run on the ultra-thin Caliber 5900, providing a 60-hour power reserve.

The 41mm models, meanwhile, are offered in the iconic "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" and a rich forest green. Paired exclusively with textured rubber straps, these timepieces are powered by the robust Caliber 4302, boasting an impressive 70-hour power reserve.

Joining the time-and-date models are three exceptional 41mm chronographs. Two variants feature full 18k pink gold cases, one in "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" and the other in forest green. The third model, in a striking black colorway, showcases a pink gold case with a black ceramic middle case and crown, highlighting the collection's distinctive octagonal shape.

All three chronographs feature a tri-counter layout, date window, and tachymeter scale, powered by the automatic vertical-clutch, column-wheel flyback Caliber 4401 with a 70-hour power reserve.

Across the collection, the new Code 11.59 watches boast 18k pink gold hands and applied hour markers on embossed dials, luminescent for enhanced legibility. The double-curved sapphire crystals and sapphire casebacks provide a clear view of the movements, while water resistance is assured to 30 meters.

Sofia Candeias, Audemars Piguet's Product Director, commented, "These new models exemplify the Code 11.59 collection's versatility and contemporary spirit, with new references and colors suitable for all wrist sizes."

Five years since its debut, the Code 11.59 continues to evolve, defying initial skepticism and establishing itself as a modern icon. With prices ranging from $33,200 USD for the Code 11.59 Selfwinding 38 to $48,200 USD for the Code 11.59 Selfwinding Chronograph 41, this latest release offers a refined and luxurious addition to Audemars Piguet's exceptional watchmaking heritage.

Let's talk about the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 replica watch.

This watch isn't exactly the same as the real Audemars Piguet Code 11.59, but it's still pretty well-made and pays a lot of attention to detail. It tries to capture the essence of the original design with its blue dial, titanium case, and rubber strap. Plus, it has a movement that works automatically to keep time accurately.

One big advantage of this replica watch is that it's much cheaper, so more people can afford it. But, it's important to know that it might not be as finely made, durable, or water-resistant as the real Audemars Piguet watch.

Still, the replica watch does a great job with details like markings, fonts, and how it looks overall. It's a good choice for folks who want something that looks and feels like the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 but without the high price tag.
