Audemars Piguet 18K Yellow Gold Diamond Dress Watch (Circa 1970s)
A magnificent example of Audemars Piguet's artistry from the golden era of ultra-thin watchmaking. This stunning vintage dress watch, often overshadowed by the Royal Oak hype, is a true "sleeper" defined by its exquisite hand-finished details and mechanical purity. It wears like a piece of high jewelry while housing world-class horology.
This is old-world haute horlogerie in its purest form. No frills, no gimmicks. Just craft.
