Fake Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 5402ST Series A
Let’s start at the beginning, with an A series Royal Oak 5402 ST available from Wind Vintage. When we say beginning, we mean one of the first 100 1:1 replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks ever produced. This example is a ‘full spec’ in original condition, and tells a crystal clear story of the origins of the watch. This watch’s age has only made itself known in a subtle and even manner across the case, bezel and bracelet, representing one of the better preserved examples currently on the market. The case appears to have experienced a light polish at some point in its past, but remains in remarkable condition considering its age from the first quarter of 1972. The last time one of the first 100 of the A series hit the block, it sold for 1,058,000 CHF (around $1.17 million USD) in May 2022 through Philipps. This perfect fake Audemars Piguet UK is being offered at $195,000.
Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 5402SA
In 1977 luxury replica Audemars Piguet released a bi-metal, or two-tone, Royal Oak in the reference 5402SA. This reference brought a gray dial to a steel case with a gold bezel, and the bracelet utilized gold links as securing points. The look was distinctly different from that of the base steel or full gold references, and while two-toned super clone watches for sale have never caught on in a huge way, they have their ardent supporters, including James Lamden, the seller of this specific one. Lamden told us, “I think a real focus for me is bi-metal: (a) they look really cool, and (b) it’s a very personal flavor. So if you don’t like it, you don’t want it. And if you do like it, it’s badass. I personally have a jumbo two-tone and I just can’t imagine wearing anything else.”
This reference also represents a great relative value in the aaa quality replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak range, and this example produced in the ‘80s is currently listed for $59,950. It is listed in overall excellent condition, and is offered with its top quality copy Audemars Piguet service box.
