Audemars Piguet Bamboo - 18K Yellow Gold Champagne Dial

Trade In
Details
A Ribbed Champagne Dial
A champagne dial ruled with fine horizontal grooves sits inside the octagonal 18K yellow gold case of this Audemars Piguet Bamboo, with an applied AP monogram at 12 o'clock and a ring of tiny dots tracking the minutes. Raised bamboo nodes mark the bezel, and the same segmented stalks run down the case flanks and into the integrated bracelet. Slim gold hands sweep a dial left free of numerals. A folding deployant clasp closes the bracelet.
Audemars Piguet's Organic Eighties Turn
Through the late 1970s and 1980s, Audemars Piguet balanced its angular sports watches with gold designs drawn from nature. Using a thin quartz caliber allowed the Bamboo's case profile to drop low enough to match the height of each articulated bracelet segment. Special-order deployant clasps were fitted on request for boutique clients during that era.
Sharp Segments And Clean Dots
This piece is in Very Good Vintage Condition overall, with crisp bamboo-node sculpting across its case and bracelet. The 18K yellow gold case keeps clean contours along every ridged segment, and the sculpted bezel is clean. The champagne dial is clean as well, with every printed minute dot intact and the gold hands unmarked. The crystal is clear. The integrated bracelet drapes tightly with minimal stretch and closes securely on its deployant clasp. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
A Sculpted Yellow Gold Weight
Articulated gold nodes hinge closely around the wrist, spreading nearly ninety grams of 18K yellow gold into a cuff-like drape. The case is thin and flat-sided, so it reads as one band of gold with the bracelet, and its octagonal outline places the Bamboo among Audemars Piguet's gold dress watches of the 1980s.
