This watch looks weird, it has an outlook of AP Royal Oak but immitating the dial design of Hublot Sang Bleu, well, that dial design looks very natural and good in such an octagonal AP Royal Oak case, I must say that Vakuy Rigas has done a good job.
The watch has a big case size that is measured 43mm in diameter and 14mm in thickness, it is made with solid 304 stainless steel and has great polishing and brushing on the case, with a long stainless steel bracelet, the entire watch also feels heavy on your hand.
The frontal face of the bezel has a brushing finish that is completed in the same direction as that on the case and bracelet, the edge and every corner of the case are polished, there is nothing on the crown but only matte finish. The watch has the classic AP Royal Oak bracelet being connected to the case naturally and stably, the bracelet is integrated with the case seamlessly, which looks like an extended part of the case. That’s also the reason why so many people like AP Royal Oak, not only because of its sporty outlook, but also the connection of the case and bracelet makes the watch fit your wrist in a more comfortable way, but the premise is that your wrist is big enough.
The dial shows the time in a creative way, where you can see the most mechanical method to display the time. The working or moving steel frame at the center is traditional second hand, next the steel frame with one corner filled with white luminescence is minute hand, the outermost steel frame is hour hand, which is pointing at the hour number printed on the beveled inner bezel. The sapphire crystal has a very good permeability, you can observe the dial clearly at every angle.
At last, the watch has a Japan 8215 movement that is a standard automatic movement from Miyota. This movement now has been widely used in replica watches and homage watches made in China, it is well known for its high stability. I have the watch for three weeks now, it gains 18 seconds each day now but I still love it very much.
