Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26402 Review

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26402 model is produced by the leading Super Clone manufacturer workshops with a 5th class titanium case, standard case diameter and 7750 automatic chronograph 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.

This watch has chronograph function. It displays a more sporty and dynamic style in terms of positioning. It is generally designed with classic red, white and blue color harmony.

It has a case diameter of 44 millimeters. The case is entirely white ceramic. It offers a more comfortable use with its lightweight structure. The light silver tone dial is combined with a white rubber strap. It does not attract attention with a dazzling shine; On the contrary, it reflects simple elegance with its classic and luxurious detail workmanship. The advantage of ceramics is that it is resistant to scratches and dirt. Otherwise, AP would not have designed this watch entirely in white. He's not going to shoot himself in the foot.

The dial surface has a classic large square pattern. All white. The JF Factory Audemars Piguet looks quite stylish with its three small blue secondary dials and blue inner shades. The small subdial inside the dial at 12 o'clock is the normal seconds dial; The small dial at position 12 is the seconds hand of the watch. There is a chronograph minute dial at position 9, and a chronograph hour dial at position 6. The watch glass is also made of sapphire glass. It has a date window at 3 o'clock and has a date magnifier on it. The first improvement is in the date font. In the previous V1 version, many people complained that the date font was not clear and the letters were thin. Now in JF Factory V2 this is all solved. The date font is now bolded and centered. Octagonal bezel; The direction of the straight grooves of the screws is kept in line with the original. In addition, they all have a slightly recessed process!

What should you pay attention to when using the JF Factory Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26402 white ceramic chronograph?

Let me give you a little information here. There is a no-go zone when setting the date: between 9pm and 3am. You should not forcefully adjust the date at these times. Because, especially in the 7750 movement, the resistance of the internal structure is quite sensitive. If we adjust it forcibly, the gears of the mechanism may lock; This causes the clock to stop completely. Let me show you. This is getting ready to skip dates between 9 and 3. Meanwhile, the teeth of the day and date gears are very tightly engaged. If you try to adjust the date within this time period, you will break the gears of the date dial or movement dial. This increases the failure rate of the watch. Look, first the date skips, then the day skips. This is a slow burn situation. However, the day skips around two o'clock. In other words, date and day settings should not be made in the upper semicircle. This must be avoided.

JF Factory screw-down crown. There is a detail that has not been improved here: the hand scratches badly when turning and opening the crown on the back. Not only this model, but all such designs are scratching the finger. I think the hand feeling would be better if this area was processed a little. The crown is also made of white ceramic material. Audemars Piguet 26402 is a chronograph watch. The button on the top of the crown is the chronograph start and stop button; The button at the bottom is the stop button. After starting the chronograph, press it again and it stops. When pressed here, the chronograph is reset. Once you start the chronograph, you must stop it; You can only reset it after stopping it. You cannot reset directly without stopping. Such incorrect operations easily cause wear on the chronograph gears of the mechanism. This is something to consider in a multifunctional chronograph watch: first stop, then reset. The situation is the same with original watches. In daily life, we can keep the chronograph function of the replica watch off as much as possible. Because we do not need these functions most of the time. Therefore, it is better to be careful. In normal use, reading the time with the function turned off is no problem.

White rubber strap. It is wrong to say that the white rubber strap does not retain much dirt; It requires frequent maintenance. Even if it just gets dirty, it's still fine. But if it turns yellow, there is no choice but to replace it with a new belt. The buckle is made of titanium material and has a fine brushed workmanship. The position of the head ring can now move; so it fits the wrist better. If it didn't move, there would be a lot of space left in the ear area when worn. Only those with thick wrists could fill this. It wouldn't be very comfortable for those with thin wrists.

As for the mechanism of the JF Factory Audemars Piguet 26402 replica watch, there is no major improvement compared to its predecessor. Again, the Shanghai 7750 movement is used, which imitates the original 3126 movement. There is a difference in the balance position of the mechanism. Black automatic rotor, same color as original. The automatic rotor and bridge machining is spot on. The improvement on the back is in the inscriptions on the edge of the case back; It is now more deeply processed. The material of the case back is titanium alloy.

What should be considered in daily use of the JF Factory Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26402 white ceramic chronograph?

On chronograph watches, do not turn on the chronograph function as much as possible. If you turn on the chronograph and want the watch to start at the same time, this greatly increases the risk of failure of the watch and seriously depletes its power reserve. As you know, the power reserve of replica watches does not last very long anyway. The power reserve of such automatic replica watches reaches a maximum of 36 hours. Therefore, when we turn on the chronograph, especially when the chronograph is running and the watch is ticking, the power consumption approximately doubles. Therefore, my personal advice is to turn off the chronograph function in daily use or use it as little as possible. Of course, it is possible to use it. But after finishing the chronograph, be sure to reset and turn it off; When shutting down, be sure to first stop it and then reset it. This is the correct method of use. Since it is a chronograph model with high power consumption, the power reserve may easily become insufficient if you do not pay attention to details in daily use. That's why I repeatedly recommend that you turn on the chronograph function as little as possible, or even not at all. There is no problem with the normally working 7750 movement. It is quite stable to show time as long as there is no impact or impact.

Here we come to the end. I hope Taho's article was useful to you. I will share more detailed disassembly, real shot review and real-replica comparison in the future.
