Audemars Piguet Cobra.

Details

Here we have an uncommon vintage integrated 18K white gold Audemar Piguet “cobra” with a dark navy blue matte dial in great condition from the 1970s. What makes this one more special than the others is the integrated bracelet. It is the closest to the automatic version of the “cobra” being it has the thicker and heavier bracelet which is adorned by collectors. The dial features 12 original diamonds set hour markers and manual wind movement. It keeps great time and is fully functional. Case size is 27x27mm including crown. The bracelet fits wrist sizes of 7.25-7.5 inches long and a total of 127.1 grams of 18k gold. We offer professional sizing to extend or shorten integrated gold bracelets upon request. The dial and crystal is free from any scratches or marks. All parts are original including the dial, crown, movement, and caseback. Both the dial and case are in great cosmetic, untouched condition.

Key Specs
History

The Cobra is one of the most sinuous and distinctive watches in the Audemars Piguet dress catalog — a bracelet watch whose integrated 18-karat gold links undulate in a pattern that evokes, and earns, the name. Produced primarily in the late 1970s through the 1990s, the Cobra houses ultrathin manual-wind movements in cases ranging from 26mm to 35mm.

These are watches that rewarded you for being close to them: the bracelet articulation, the surface contrasts between polished and brushed gold, and the dial finishing are all things a photograph undersells. Reference 5403 in yellow gold and 4239BA with pave diamond dials represent the range from elegant everyday wear to full haute joaillerie. The Cobra is AP at its most purely luxurious — no sport pretense, no complications for their own sake.
