April 11, 2021, Shanghai-Swiss luxury watch brand Audemars Piguet presents the first work of the new Marvel Superhero series-the limited 250-piece Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Black Panther Flying Tourbillon replica 26620IO.OO.D077CA.01, and was shockedly released at the "Audemars Piguet and Best Friends, Los Angeles Live Show" event held on April 10, celebrating the start of a new era of long-term cooperation between Audemars Piguet and Marvel, featuring talk show actor Kevin Hart and Audemars Piguet Global Chief Executive François-HenryBennahmias co-hosted the event. Basketball player LeBron James, tennis star Serena Williams, golfer Ian Poulter, boxer Anthony Joshua, singer, actor Lu Han, Jon Gray and Mark Ronson attended the event.
DetailsThe watch’s 42-mm case, made of 18k white gold, feature a hand-engraved motif inspired by the high-tech uniform of its namesake, Marvel’s Black Panther, aka Prince T’Challa of the futuristic, fictional African nation of Wakanda. (It’s unclear what, if any, impact Audemars Piguet’s new Marvel partnership will have on the latter’s existing partnership with Japan’s Citizen Watch Co.) The character is also fully rendered on the dial as a carved, hand-painted 3D figure in the same white-gold as the case. The hallmark octagonal bezel of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica collection, with its eight visible hexagonal screws, surrounds an inner bezel in purple, accented with black-PVD-coated white-gold hour markers. The thick hour and minute hands are luminous-coated and the screw-locked crown is made of black ceramic. This remodelled Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept replica brings together a flying tourbillon movement and a 3D white gold miniature rendition of Black Panther. If the superhero theme is unconventional for the Haute Horlogerie and métiers d’art-themed watches, the execution and detailing is quite impressive. Culturally relevant for some or controversial for others, we’ll leave the decision to you. The details adorning Black Panther’s body are hand-engraved and then hand-painted. 30 hours of work are necessary to engrave, paint and bring the Marvel superhero to life.
Flip the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept Black Panther replica over and the exhibition caseback, secured by 8 screws, offers an unimpeded view of the hand-wound Calibre 2965. Originally presented in 2018 in this ROC watch, the flying tourbillon movement runs at 3Hz and is in full display at 6 o’clock. The movement can store 72-hours of power reserve when fully wound. It comes in a new variation – hence the new 2965 reference number – standing out with its unprecedented finishing featuring uneven geometric titanium patterns on the bridges, executed with grey and black PVD coating.
