Audemars Piguet 18K Yellow Gold Diamond Dress Watch (Circa 1970s)

$14,999.00Price

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.

 

Key Features

 

  • Ultra-Thin Movement: Powered by a thin, reliable manual-wind AP movement (likely the celebrated Calibre 2003 or a similar variant).

  • Integrated Woven Bracelet: The defining feature—a supple, hand-finished solid 18K yellow gold woven bracelet that drapes elegantly and integrates seamlessly with the case, finished with a signed AP hidden clasp.

  • Factory Diamond Setting: The rectangular case is adorned with a double row of brilliant-cut diamonds, confirmed to be factory set.

  • Textured Dial: Features a beautiful, glittery gold dust/eggshell-textured dial with thin applied gold baton markers and simple gold hands, offering mesmerizing light play.

    Josh was amazing to deal with. Quick, responsive and highly knowledgable - even an interstate sale was made easy and stress free. Would 100% come to Josh and the Vintage Hour first for any of my future watch needs.
