Thursday is the new Friday in the era of flexible working across the Western world, which might have meant few would have been paying attention at 8.30pm, Central European Time, when Patek Philippe unveiled its first all-new collection of Swiss made replica watches from its German headquarters.
But if watch lovers around the world were enjoying an early weekend pint, it did not stop them tuning in for the launch.
As the news emerged online, they collectively gulped, put their glasses down, and took to social media to share their first impressions on the AAA UK fake Patek Philippe Cubitus watches.
Cubitus first impressions
High quality Patek Philippe replica watches chose an autumn launch instead of its usual Watches and Wonders showcase, presumably to ensure it makes a bigger splash.
News and pictures of the Cubitus leaked around a week ago, which ramped up the social media noise ahead of the launch.
Much of that noise was speculation about whether the leaked Cubitus pictures were fake news, which only added to the drama.
On arrival last night, the reaction to Cubitus from the same keyboard and webcam warriors was jaw-dropping, and no doubt chastening for a master of best 1:1 copy watches design like Patek Philippe.
There has barely been a positive word said about the sporty line outside of a few editors with important relationships with arguably the world’s finest watchmaker.
The top replica watches industry has not had a pile-in on this scale since Audemars Piguet first unveiled the CODE 11.59 in 2019 or more bile since Bremont changed its logo and business direction earlier this year.
But retailers are telling WatchPro this morning that response from customers has been as strong as ever for a Patek Philippe launch, so let’s have a quick look at what all the fuss is about (if you want 3,000 words on the issue, head over to Hodinkee where Ben Clymer is back doing what he does best).
There are three cheap super clone watches UK in the debut collection of Cubitus: two three-handers with date and a more complicated Grand Date with weekdays and a moonphase, which is powered by a brand new movement.
Cubitus is clearly a close cousin to Patek Philippe’s Nautilus family, sharing an identical integrated bracelet design, embossed horizontal slats on the dials giving a bit of nod to the deck of a ship and the same shades of blue and olive green seen in recently discontinued steel versions of the brand’s most famous sports luxury fake watches.
The olive green piece, Ref. 5821/1AR-001, is the only model in steel with a steel bracelet; a combination that Patek Philippe president Thierry Stern had previously said was being phased out.
At CHF 35,000, it is hardly inexpensive, and there has been criticism that it is considerably more expensive than the 5711A before it was discontinued, but that was a few years’ ago now, and secondary market prices for a relative of the wholesale replica Patek Philippe Nautilus watches could have been even higher.
It is large, at 45mm square, and houses an automatic Cal. 26-330 S C movement with 45-hour power reserve topped up by a solid 22ct gold rotor.
Next up in price is the two-tone rose gold and steel piece, another three-hander with date, but with a strong emphasis on the opulence of gold, which is used to frame the date at 3,o’clock, applied hour markers and the hours and minutes hands.
A vertically brushed and precisely faceted bezel is also made entirely from rose gold for the 5821/1AR_001, perfectly framing the sunburst slatted dial in Patek Philippe’s favourite blue.
The best quality fake watches is retailing for CHF 52,000.
Top of the tree is the Cubitus Instantaneous Grand Date, Day and Moon Phases, Reference 5822P-001 in platinum, again in blue with a matching composite strap, which is powered by a brand new micro rotor movement, Cal. 240 PS CI J LU, driving central hours, minutes, small seconds, large date, moon phase and day of the week indicators.
You can join the waiting list now if you have CHF 75,000 to spare.
