Nostalgia will do strange things to you – and when retro-inspired Swiss made replica watches are involved, those effects go wild. For years, brands like Cartier, Longines, Rolex and Audemars Piguet have reintroduced models that help reinforce their most precious assets of all – identity and heritage – while highlighting how their artisanal skills and technical innovations have evolved. This year, horology has gone madder than ever for its retro and vintage forefathers, with almost every big name dabbling in the archives in the hope of creating a future classic.
Replica Breitling Navitimer B12 Chronograph 41 Cosmonaute Watches
Breitling is busy spending 2024 celebrating 140 Years of Firsts. However much like marketing jargon that sounds, it’s impossible to overstate what the 1:1 UK fake Breitling Navitimer and Cosmonaute watches have done for aviation-leaning watchmaking over the years. With this 41mm hunk, that history lives on. £17,900.
Fake TAG Heuer Carrera Skipper Gold Watches
Maybe the hype around TAG Heuer’s 1968 Carrera Skipper is more art than science, but people sure do go crazy for its tricolour subdial. Bringing a new version back last year was step one of a rather good plan, and this rose gold beauty is the next step no one saw coming. For anyone into retro-inspired perfect replica watches, surely this tops the lot. £18,750.
Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Replica Watches
There aren’t many chain bracelets kicking around this year, which is probably why Patek Philippe figured it appropriate to put a new, postmodern pink gold iteration on its uniquely shaped (and very slender) self-winding Golden Ellipse copy watches for sale. £51,470.
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Fake Watches
Trust the Crown to juice up the world’s most coveted sports watch, while still keeping it classy. As Altieri puts it, “The gem setting and use of black and white mother-of-pearl on the dial really sets this luxury replica Rolex Daytona watches apart from previous generations.” £53,850.
Replica Cartier Santos de Cartier Watches
“Maybe Cartier knows something we don’t,” says Dimepiece’s Brynn Wallner, after the French maison dropped a collection of chunky new editions of its oldest wristwatch (the above brown-dialled one included) so soon after whipping up a frenzy for teeny-tiny cheap super clone watches. “They feel in direct opposition to the ’70s/’90s genderfluid trends we’re seeing across fashion that have seeped into the horological universe,” adds Wallner – and we’re guessing that is exactly Cartier’s intention. £6,750.
