When Audemars Piguet launched its pioneering collaboration — a limited-edition Royal Oak Offshore — with Jay-Z in 2005, it kick-started a watchmaking trend that gathers strength each year.
It’s true that many best replica watches brands are no strangers to celebrity partnerships, where the famous are shot in campaigns, celebrating those “shared values” of grace, athletic prowess or acting ability, and of course their millions of social media followers.
But it gets much more interesting when watchmakers and talent from other creative spaces are brought together to co-design top UK fake watches, as Audemars Piguet did with Jay-Z. Sometimes the synergy is surprisingly good. Take Hublot, with its back catalogue of work with artists, tattooists, a design director of a supercar brand and most recently the Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, while last year Bulgari teamed with the K-pop superstar Lisa from Blackpink. Audemars Piguet continues to be ahead of the pack and recently paired with the rapper mogul Travis Scott (himself a big watch collector, counting many personal pieces from the brand) and his record label, Cactus Jack, on a wild, customised edition of a complicated Royal Oak model in chocolate ceramic.
Fashion designers have also been co-opted for luxury replica watches collaborations. It’s a fitting partnership, as high fashion is as much about finesse, attention to detail and tradition as haute horlogerie is. Past associations include Jaeger-LeCoultre working with Christian Louboutin-designed straps, and Prada pairing with Panerai, also to produce straps. Hublot, however, went full design partnership with the late Yohji Yamamoto, whose avant garde spirit was interpreted on a flagship timepiece in typical monochromatic hues, completed by a left-field camo strap.
Two more collaborations have been unveiled so far this year. Victoria Beckham has applied her particular take on functional, chic minimalism to Breitling and come up with the high quality 2024 replica Breitling Chronomat Automatic 36 Victoria Beckham collection watches, a limited edition of just 1,500 pieces. It makes sense that Beckham should be involved with a luxury watch brand as she has a knack of making a sporty Rolex or refined Patek Philippe work with any outfit. Like her husband, she has quite the UK AAA copy watches collection (as spotted in the recent documentary about Beckham, who is the face of Tudor’s men’s watches, Rolex’s sibling brand), including a gem-set Patek Philippe Nautilus, and a gold Rolex Daytona.
For Breitling, VB has channelled her appreciation of men’s watches — “I love their weight, the hardware,” she says — with her expertise in blending colours and textures. The perfect Breitling replica watches architecture hasn’t changed, with its metal rouleaux bracelet and raised rider tabs at 15-minute intervals, but she’s introduced colours from her spring/summer 2024 palette: peppermint, midnight blue, dove grey and sand. Cases are either stainless steel or yellow gold, which Breitling super clone watches wholesale has brought in specifically for this venture. There’s a personal decorative detail with her initials topping the second hand, while her full name is featured on the back. Georges Kern, Breitling CEO, is thrilled with the collaboration. “The Chronomat is already a versatile watch with a classic form,” he says, one that VB has made “very her”.
“I wanted to create something timeless and elevated that had a real ease and effortless elegance to it,” Beckham says. Under the hood, the Swiss movements replica Breitling watches is as powerful as its colours, driven by the self-winding automatic three-hand movement with date feature. Beckham describes it as a sophisticated, “cool and relaxed alternative in the female watch market”. It certainly is a desirable piece, particularly in the yellow gold. What’s more, it feels like best quality Breitling fake watches she would definitely wear herself, “looser on the wrist, and with some great tailoring”, as is her style.
