If you’ve ever dreamt of owning a watch that combines exquisite craftsmanship with mind-blowing functionality, then the APS Portuguese Series Perpetual Calendar Watch is your dream come true. This horological marvel replicates one of the most complex timepieces ever, ensuring every feature is not only synchronized with the original but can be adjusted via the crown.
Functionality Features: At the 12 o’clock position, you’ll find the enchanting display of the moon, sun, and stars. 9 o’clock reveals an independent small seconds hand alongside a weekday indicator. The 6 o’clock position houses a month hand that links with the year display at 7 o’clock, advancing annually through every 12 months. Meanwhile, the 3 o’clock position maintains the classic power reserve indicator and date display with true functionality, setting it apart from less sophisticated replicas.
Exquisite Craftsmanship: The case is built with the same three-part structure as the original—brushed on the sides with polished finishes on the top and bottom. The high-end dome sapphire crystal adds a touch of elegance and quality that is hard to overlook.
Movement Performance: Sized at 42.2mm x 14.9mm, the watch is powered by the robust Portuguese 7-based movement, known for its efficiency and stability with a power reserve exceeding 72 hours. A complex perpetual calendar module has been integrated, keeping all functions in sync with the original settings and allowing full adjustments through the crown.
Quality Control: Given the intricacy of the perpetual calendar module, each watch is meticulously calibrated before shipping, ensuring it is ready-to-wear upon receipt. However, adjusting features isn’t for the faint-hearted. If you must, set the time to 8 PM before modifying other settings. Start by aligning the weekday manually, then adjust the month (with annual linkage) by turning upwards, and tweak the calendar by turning downwards three times.
APS is committed to crafting watches with attention to detail, delivering timepieces that are as intricate as they are reliable.
