Audemars Piguet has a long and distinguished history of making exquisite dress watches.This lovely example from the 1980s is the quintessential representation of a luxury dress watch. This manual wound dress watch features an elegant 33 mm case with slim straight lugs and a narrow round bezel, which give the watch a larger appearance on the wrist than its dimensions would suggest.Most dress watches from this era were executed in 18k yellow-gold, yet this specimen goes off the beaten path and employs a cool and understated 18k white-gold alloy instead. The choice of case material plays well with the brushed silver dial with simple thin 18k white-gold stick markers and matching thin sword hands.The watch is in excellent condition with sharp lines and comes on an alligator-leather Audemars Piguet strap with an 18k white-gold ardillon buckle, signed Audemars Piguet.
Introduction
Audemars PiguetAudemars Piguet is among the holy trinity Swiss maisons d’horlogerie alongside Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin. Audemars Piguet has a storied history of producing high-complication watches. It all started in 1875, when Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet founded the company in the heart of the Vallée de Joux, Le Brassus, Switzerland. This pure, rough and wild landscape, with deep, dark forests, ice-cold waters and the omnipresence of rocks and hills, provided inspiration and raw materials for the Swiss watch manufacture to develop the finest watches. Since its inception, Audemars Piguet has specialized in rare, valuable and highly-complicated watches like perpetual calendars, chronographs and chiming watches. Nowadays, the emphasis of Audemars Piguet lies on the iconic Royal Oak line.
