Now, these watches have become more and more expensive in recent years, indeed, the watch-making technology has been greatly improved and these watches are becoming better and better, but is it really worth to spend more than 800 US Dollars on such a replica watch? And it still has flaws, even the best ones like Daytona and Submariner, whether made by Clean or VS, they are not perfect, we can find flaws on them. Some cheap replicas can work accurately for years, but some super clones may broken or have issues within several weeks after receiving, that’s the truth.
For this AP watch we are going to discuss today, APS Factory has had a plan to develop its 4401 movement since 2023, after two years of researching and development, this super clone 4401 finally came out in January of 2025, this is the first chronograph movement that has a flyback feature in this industry, it is more complex than the DD4130 movement developed by Noob before, but I can not say this 4401 is more durable and stable than the Dandong 4130, the stability and durability of 4401 still need to be tested by time. Dandong 4130 is the most stable chrono movement used in replica watches, it often does not have issues.
For the AP 26240, APS has four stainless steel models and one black ceramic model in stock, the rose gold models still need to wait. The four stainless steel models have white dial, black dial, blue dial and green dial options. If you want one, I only suggest you buy the one with white dial or black dial, because the 26240 with blue dial or green dial has color difference. Surely APS will improve this in future. And you do not need to pay extra money to replace the dial, I see some dealers have already offered the dial replacing service, no need.
The polishing and brushing finish on the case and bracelet is super, the checkers on the dial and the patterns on each checker are 1:1 clone of that on genuine, with their experience in making the AP 15500, APS can make a great dial for the 26240. I took a lot of pictures of its dial, please check them below, could you please find any flaws?
There are some obvious flaws you can easily find on the APS 26240, for example, the screws is on the same horizon line as the face of the bezel, they should be slightly sunkened. The end link of the braclet that connects the case is not too flexible. The engravings on the movement plates are not deep, and the gold tone of the auto rotor is not correct, that’s understandable because the rotor is not solid gold made.
For this AP 26240, you do not need to be so hurry to buy it, after more reviews coming out, then you can make a decision on which one to buy. Like on the 15500 and 15407, APS will certainly make improvements on their 26240 in next months. By the way, the 26240 has a thickness of 12.4mm and has a weight of 170.7 grams.
