Details

Here's a vintage Audemars Piguet Cobra  manual wind in 18K white gold with a matte blue factory diamond dial from the 70s. Keeps great time and is fully functional. Measurements include a 32-33mm case size across and an 18mm lug width (signed clasp) (fits up to a 7 inch wrist). It's an odd tank shape and design from a brand that is a one trick pony with the royal oak. There is a knot/ rope braid finishing and texture on both the bezel and bracelet.Matching diamond hands and hour markers. Color changes with different light. White gold case and bracelet. The piece is unisex , it can be worn by both men and women. The piece is quite feminine, but both men and women can wear it. The piece is great alternative and value from other pieces offered by AP.

Ready to wear!

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.
