Welcome to the world of luxury timepieces, where precision meets elegance. The APS Portugal Series Perpetual Calendar Watch is not just a watch; it’s a piece of art that combines craftsmanship with advanced technology.
Let’s dive into its features. Positioned at 12 o’clock, the watch displays the lunar cycle – perfect for those who appreciate the celestial bodies. At 9 o’clock, you’ll find an independent small seconds hand and a day indicator. The 6 o’clock position showcases the month indicator, which works in harmony with the year display at 7 o’clock. Every 12 months, the year marker advances seamlessly. To top it off, the 3 o’clock position houses the iconic power reserve and date indicators, individually functional to set this piece apart from lesser replicas.
In terms of craftsmanship, the case mirrors the original with its three-part structure. The brushed middle section contrasts beautifully against the polished top and bottom, while the high-cost sapphire crystal adds a distinguished touch of class.
At the heart of this watch lies a reliable movement, measuring 42.2mmX14.9mm. With a foundation based on the renowned Portugueser Seven movement, it boasts an impressive power reserve of over 72 hours. The added complexity of the perpetual calendar module ensures all functions can be adjusted via the crown, syncing flawlessly with the original.
Quality control is taken seriously, especially given the intricacy of the perpetual calendar module. All watches are pre-set so that they are ready to wear upon arrival. However, a word of advice: don’t adjust the watch without care. If needed, set the time to 8 PM before tweaking any other functions. Start by aligning the weekday manually, then pull out the crown to adjust the month and year, turning upwards, and turn downwards to fine-tune the date.
APS creates with attention to detail, proving that luxury and precision go hand-in-hand.
