Description
APSF Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Chronograph 26393CR
The APSF edition stands as the benchmark for the Code 11.59 series, driven by its true clone Calibre 4401 and exacting multi-part case construction.
Powered by Clone Calibre 4401
The introduction of the clone Calibre 4401 by APSF fundamentally shifted the landscape for Audemars Piguet chronograph replicas. Moving away from the compromised architecture of modified A7750 movements, this caliber offers a true column-wheel mechanism, ensuring crisp pusher engagement and correct sub-dial spacing at 3, 6, and 9 o��clock. The movement bridges are meticulously decorated with c么tes de Gen猫ve and perlage, visible through the sapphire caseback, meeting for visual accuracy and mechanical stability.
The APSF Calibre 4401 is typically regulated to operate within 卤10��15 seconds per day, providing reliable daily performance for a complex chronograph movement.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Hours, minutes, small seconds, date, and fully functional chronograph
- �� Winding Direction: Bidirectional rotor winding
Specifications in Detail
The 41mm case faithfully recreates the complex geometry of the Code 11.59, featuring an octagonal pink gold-plated mid-case framed by a white gold-plated bezel and open-worked lugs, showcasing precise alternating brushed and polished finishing.
The dial exhibits a deep, dynamic sunburst effect with accurate concentric snailing on the sub-dials. The applied indices and hands are polished to catch the light, while the date window sits at the correct depth between 4 and 5 o��clock.
APSF has successfully manufactured the signature double-curved sapphire crystal, providing the unique optical distortion and depth that is the hallmark of the Code 11.59 collection.
The strap integrates cleanly with the stylized lugs and is secured by an AP-signed folding clasp, matching the two-tone aesthetic of the case.
The Case for APSF
Many collectors ask: ��Why not standard 7750-based versions?��
APSF��s proprietary Calibre 4401 eliminates the sunken date wheel and incorrect sub-dial spacing inherent to 7750-based replicas. Furthermore, APSF��s mastery of the complex Code 11.59 case geometry��specifically the hollowed lugs and octagonal mid-case��ensures the correct alternating brushed and polished finishing that standard factories fail to replicate.
In the Interest of Honesty: The factory-supplied leather strap, while visually accurate, lacks the supple break-in feel of the genuine Audemars Piguet alligator strap, and the rose gold plating tone may exhibit a slightly warmer hue under direct harsh lighting compared to solid 18k pink gold.

Common Collector Questions
Q: Does the chronograph function exactly like the genuine Calibre 4401?
A: Yes, the APSF clone Calibre 4401 features a fully functional column-wheel chronograph. The sub-dials operate correctly, with running seconds at 6 o��clock, chronograph hours at 3 o��clock, and chronograph minutes at 9 o��clock.
Q: How accurate is the double-curved sapphire crystal on this APSF model?
A: APSF has successfully replicated the complex geometry of the genuine crystal, which is curved on the internal surface and vertically curved on the exterior. This provides the correct optical effect and depth to the gray dial.
Q: Is the two-tone case construction a single molded piece or multi-part?
A: The APSF case is constructed using a multi-part architecture identical to the genuine. It features a distinct octagonal pink gold-plated middle case sandwiched between the white gold-plated bezel and caseback, allowing for precise alternating brushed and polished finishing.
Q: What is the most noticeable limitation of this specific replica?
A: While the case architecture and movement are exceptional, the factory-supplied gray leather strap is somewhat stiff out of the box. Many collectors opt to upgrade to a custom aftermarket strap to match the luxurious feel of the genuine Audemars Piguet strap.
