BBSF Edition — Integrated Steel Bracelet
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar reference 26615TI represents a highly specific niche within replica horology, and this BBSF release addresses the complex subdial layout required by the genuine article. While collectors often look to APSF for standard three-hand models, BBSF has prioritized the functional architecture of the multi-display calendar. Notably, this replica measures 11.3mm in thickness and weighs 185.2 grams, indicating a solid steel construction rather than the lighter titanium of the genuine reference.
Powering this piece is a modified clone Caliber 5134 automatic movement. Unlike a true mechanical perpetual calendar, this caliber operates as a comprehensive full calendar, requiring manual date advancement during months with fewer than 31 days. The movement features a power reserve of approximately 36 hours and supports the day, date, month, and moonphase indicator subdials.
The 41mm case exhibits the signature brushed/polished alternating finishing expected of the Royal Oak lineage, ensuring a proper integrated bracelet fit. The dial is rendered in a Salmon tone with a sharp Grande Tapisserie pattern, providing a visually accurate representation of the rare boutique-exclusive aesthetic.
