BBS Factory Replica watch Audemars Piguet 26574
The burgundy dial really catches the eye. The watch we’re reviewing today isn’t one of the super popular Audemars Piguet Royal Oak models, but it’s a multifunctional complicated watch. If you like complications, this one’s worth considering. So, about this BBS Factory Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26574BC.OO.1220BC.01 replica watch —does it have all the functions? Do they actually work? And is the exterior at least 90% accurate? I’ll be checking all of that in this review.
Exterior Accuracy of the BBS Factory 26574
BBS Factory put a lot of effort into the appearance. The 41mm size is a common dimension for the Royal Oak, just right for men to wear. It works well for daily commuting, parties, social events, and it’s also very suitable for business settings. That’s one reason why this size is so popular in Royal Oak replica watch. First, let’s look at the dial accuracy. BBS Factory nailed the “Grande Tapisserie” pattern. They used laser engraving to achieve a precise 0.1mm grid texture, which looks very fine, neat, and nicely layered. The burgundy color of the dial is also very accurately reproduced—rich, even, and a deep, classy wine-red tone. Because of the texture, the color shifts slightly under different lighting. The subdials and inner bezel use the same tone, so the whole watch looks harmonious and unified, capturing the luxury feel of the original. The bezel, case, and bracelet are all made of stainless steel. The genuine version uses white gold, but to the naked eye, the difference isn’t obvious, so it doesn’t really matter. Thanks to BBS Factory’s polishing and brushing techniques, the overall finish looks close to the genuine article—clean and sharp. It also feels great to the touch, with no rough edges. They’ve done a good job with quality control. The crystal is also excellent—sapphire glass, highly transparent and scratch-resistant. Plus, it has good lume. Overall, the materials used are solid, and the craftsmanship is pretty good. You could call this a high-quality replica watch.
Experience with the Complicated Functions
The BBS Factory Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26574BC.OO.1220BC.01 replica watch uses their self-developed Calibre 5134 movement. It has a diameter of 29mm and is just 4.3mm thick, which keeps the watch nice and slim. The complications are quite comprehensive, and more importantly, they all actually work. Every function you see on the dial is usable, reliable, and stable. The perpetual calendar is a key feature. The self-developed Calibre 5134 can automatically recognize different month lengths and leap years, so you don’t need to adjust it manually. For daily wear, you really don’t have to worry about the calendar—very practical. The layout of the functions on the dial is clear and well-organized. The fonts in each window are legible and match well with the burgundy dial, making everything easy to read. The moon phase disk has a deep starry sky texture in the background, which contrasts nicely with the burgundy dial—both useful and good-looking. To adjust the moon phase, you just turn the crown counterclockwise at the correct position. It’s simple to operate. Plus, the movement has a safety mechanism to prevent damage if you try to adjust it between 9 PM and 3 AM, which you’re not supposed to do. Besides that, this watch also has quick-adjust functions for the day and date. You can make fast adjustments using different crown positions, following the same logic as the genuine watch. Even beginners can figure it out quickly.
