1.Distinguish the real from the fake.

In terms of aesthetic design, Audemars Piguet adheres to the spirit of contemporary creation, with unique styles and a wide range of designs. The quest for perfection has led Audemars Piguet to create timepieces entirely by hand, inside and out. With precision and expertise, the watchmakers create each timepiece with great precision.

For example, in 1972, the octagonal watch, designed in the name of the British naval battleship Royal Oak, was very successful, and for nearly 30 years, various complications made by Audemars Piguet have been added to this design, such as a thallium flywheel, two hands, perpetual calendar, etc., as well as a movement with quartz automatic movement.

2.Distinguish the real from the material.

The diamonds used in Audemars Piguet watches have been carefully selected to be of the highest quality in terms of colour and clarity, making them truly flawless. It is then meticulously set by experienced jewellery craftsmen. For ** famous watch brands, what can be observed by the naked eye are the three parts of the watch: longitudinal wheel, longitudinal fork, and balance wheel.

If you have a little understanding of the watch material, you can find that the difference between copper and steel, generally speaking, the small parts such as the longitudinal wheel and longitudinal fork used in real famous watches are made of steel.

3.Distinguish the real from the movement.

Audmars Piguet's movements are driven by excellence and perfection in their workmanship and design. The concept and production of Audemars Piguet movement components are extremely intricate and dimensionally accurate to thousandths of a millimetre. On the movement of a high-end watch, you can see something called a "shock model" on the surface.

The average professional can identify the watch, just look at this to preliminarily determine the authenticity of the watch, and also know the grade of the movement inside.

AP Watch Authenticity Identification Method:

1. Look at the movement.

First of all, you must be very familiar with the model of the movement used in the real watch and the movement marking, and if you encounter a fake watch with a transparent caseback, you can distinguish the authenticity at a glance. Secondly, it is necessary to carefully observe the words of the movement, the engraving of the words of the genuine movement is clear and beautiful, while the fake watch is rough and unaesthetic. Finally, it is necessary to gain insight into the performance of the movement, such as the winding method (manual or automatic, unidirectional or bidirectional), the sound of the movement as it moves.

2. Look at the back cover label.

To look at the factory label on the back of the watch, usually the brand logo will be on the label of the famous watch, and there is an identification of the number of watch models. Some watches will also have a laser anti-counterfeiting on the back label.

3. Look at the subtle appearance.

First of all, you must carefully observe the appearance of the watch, including the polishing of the appearance: see if the polishing of the watch is delicate. Font:

The font of the real watch is full, while the fake watch looks lacking in confidence. Function: Most fake watches will work the function, which is the breakthrough to see through the fake watch.

Many fake watches function as decorations (e.g. moon phases, perpetual calendars, tourbillons, etc.) but do not actually have this function. Hands: Genuine hands can be distinguished from fakes in terms of length, thickness, shape and material.

Dial: The common dial techniques of high-end watches include enamel, guilloché, metal radiant dial, shell dial, etc., and some watches also have their own unique technology. Diamonds & Setting:

Look at the setting process, the quality and size of the diamond.

4. Look at the watch glass.

The glass of most watches is made of sapphire crystal glass, and the easiest way to distinguish it is to tap the glass surface with your finger, and a real sapphire crystal will make a crisp sound.

5.Look at the numeric number identification.

If you look closely at all the number-related markings on the back of the watch, the fake watches are usually irregular, and they do not even correspond to the digits of the real watches, while the real watches are each individually numbered.

6. Look at the icon imprint.

These include strap imprints, clasp imprints, case back imprints, lug imprints, as well as motif and numerals characteristic of gold watches.

7. Look at the hidden places.

Look at all the edges and corners, such as the inside of the strap (the head is numbered). These are the hardest things to do with fake watches, and the easiest for buyers to overlook.

8. Look at the traditional production process.

These are traditional techniques, such as the shaping of the screws, the polishing and engraving of the case back, and the special marking of some Manufactures for their watches.

9. Look at the strap.

The belts of the Haute Watches are made of high-quality alligator leather, hand-stitched and of the highest quality.

10. Look at the watch box and certificate.

The value of a luxury watch is also reflected in the workmanship of the box, which is a very sophisticated case and the certificate is printed with the model number and the unique serial number of the watch, which we call "birth paper". Some certificates will have pinhole technology to stamp the watch's number on the certificate to prevent counterfeiting.

1.Judging by the appearance material.

Judging the authenticity from the appearance, the first thing to look at is the workmanship. There will be a sense of disobedience in imitation watches, the literal workmanship is rough, and the scale is colored out of bounds ......

2.Judging by the dial.

Now many fake watches say that their watches are 316 steel shells, but in fact, the workmanship is very rough, the polishing is not smooth enough, and even some will cut their hands. Honestly, you're going to be laughed at.

The workmanship of the ** watch is very delicate and exquisite, and the polishing is also very round and smooth, giving people a sense of nobility.

3.Judging by the movement.

For watch friends who don't understand the movement, it is indeed a problem to judge the authenticity of the movement, and people who generally don't understand the watch have no way to identify, and now many businesses will set a real case and fake the movement to sell to consumers, which is even more difficult to identify.

The method of identifying the authenticity of an Audemars Piguet watch is very simple, and the average imitation watch can be distinguished by the naked eye. The current fake watch is exactly the same as the real one, and even the number is the same. Nothing less.

With a lead ring inside, the weight is also very similar. It's hard for the layman to tell. Since most of the movements are made of Japanese second-rate mechanical movements (while the previous fake ones used quartz), the accuracy rate is also very high.

When a professional technician opens the back cover, he can see the movement as soon as he looks at it, and even if he has an experienced person glances at the watch. If you really don't feel at ease, you can get it to our professional organization for an appraisal.
