Imagine owning a piece of horological art that not only tells time but narrates the cosmos—introducing the APS Perpetual Calendar Watch from the Portugal Series. Known as one of the most complex timepieces in the world of replicas, it offers a flawless experience akin to its original counterpart, with all functionalities adjusted via the crown.

The dial is a spectacle of precision and elegance: At 12 o’clock, the celestial dance of the sun, moon, and stars is displayed. The 9 o’clock position reveals an independent small seconds and weekday indicator, while at 6 o’clock, the month pointer synchronizes with a year display at 7 o’clock, making a jump every 12 months. The 3 o’clock position boasts the iconic power reserve and date display, a genuine marvel of craftsmanship where each hand is expertly separated and functional.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the watch’s casing mirrors its original construction with a three-piece ensemble; brushed in the center with polished top and bottom. The crystal is a premium domed sapphire, elevating the luxury feel of the watch.

Underneath, you’ll find a robust 42.2mm x 14.9mm movement based on the reliable IWC Portuguese 7-day movement, offering a power reserve surpassing 72 hours. The watch includes an intricate perpetual calendar module in perfect harmony with the original functions, all easily adjustable via the crown.

Quality control is a top priority for APS. Each timepiece is pre-adjusted with the perpetual calendar module meticulously calibrated. It arrives ready to wear on your wrist—just wind it up! However, a word of caution: avoid impulsive adjustments. If necessary, first adjust to 8 PM before exploring other features. Initiate by setting the weekday, then pull out the crown and rotate upwards to tweak the month (linking the year), and three spins down will engage the date.

APS is devoted to the art of timekeeping, with every detail reflecting their passion for watchmaking.
