Featuring an elegant 18K white gold "TV" case and downward turned lugs and a classic silver dial (face), it possesses timeless elegance and class. And equipped with an extremely fine, original Audemars Piguet caliber 2001 movement, it showcases top-tier Swiss watchmaking.
Like only the very finest watches in the world - select watches from the likes of Patek, AP, and V & C, it is adjusted to five positions, heat, cold, and even isochronism. And like Pateks from the era and following it has a free-sprung balance with gold Microstella screws on the balance for regulating it - it is extremely high-grade.
It measures 34mm in diameter without the crown, pleasingly larger than many similar AP's dress watches from this era.
It appears to have spent nearly all of its life safely stored away. Its case presents as mint with only light signs of previous polishing. Its dial appears original and untouched and presents as mint.
A Master Watchmaker has just fully disassembled the movement down to its last screw and freshly serviced it. It is running very true, keeping time on par with a new AP in our testing position.
For the finishing touch, it comes equipped with a brand new leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
