The dial should be easy, any dial without a sunburst is easy to rep.
The problem is the movement, Music edition use completely new movement 5900 series 5909, thickness further reduced.
Even to use 3120 that current APS and ZF used on 15400, the movement has many flaws and ZF or APS didn't rep any 37mm before.

37mm has 5909. 43mm uses 4309. https://www.watchcollectinglifestyle.com/home/my-honest-thoughts-on-the-ap-royal-oak-offshore-music

I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if that fact changes anything.

Big fan of the quick change for the straps, not so much of the dials.

I would love to have a rep of this watch! Would be stunning in 43mm size.

If they can rep the Black Panther, they can rep this

Just been searching for threads on this. I got to have a play with one today, and in person it's actually pretty gorgeous, imo. Would I spend 50k on one? Certainly not. But I would for sure buy the rep! Hopefully someone gives it a go.

Have to disagree with @legend on this one.
Also seen both in person and Im a huge fan of these dials and editions in general.
Yes, the contrast of the “rainbow” is more pronounced on HDR or edited pictures, but I loved them even IRL.

Im waiting for someone to rep them, but I suspect, it wont be any time soon, if ever. These are very rare and exclusive.
Ive been waiting on a rep of my 26400SO for years now.
Not even a hint of that happening. 😒🤣

let’s hope a good factory has some interest in making a great rep!
should we all start a poll

Yes it is subjective, aesthetics are highly individual. As long as you like it, all good.
