Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26331 OM Factory Review

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26331 model is produced by OM Factory with a solid stainless steel case, 41 mm diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

Dial and Hand Details

I like AP 26331 better than 26240, it looks much nicer than that; I especially like the small dial (subdial) design in different sizes. I don't like the same size small dials on the 26240. In the past, replicas of 26331, whether made by B or OM, had obvious defects. For example, on the 26331 produced by B, the position of the three small dials was not correct. In the 26331 from OM, the small hour and minute hands on the two small dials at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock were not working. Both of these flaws have been fixed in this newly released AP 26331 from APW Factory. Also, in this new 26331 from APW, the case thickness is very close to the original watch; When I measured it, it was 11 mm. I also measured the diameter, 41 mm.

Case and Body Workmanship

The functions of APW 26331 are the same as the original: accurate position of the small dials, sunburst work on the small dials, stepped date window design, stable SL4801 movement, beautiful chamfer work on the case and bracelet; There are many advantages in this replica 26331.

But I think there are two shortcomings that APW needs to improve on next. First, the brushed workmanship on both sides of the case is not obvious and should be strengthened. Secondly, the area where the small dials contact the main dial is not well processed and does not look very clear. Fortunately, the watch is sold at a much more affordable price compared to the 26240.
