While a standard execution might feature a simple gold dial or a single row of stones, this piece is the \"maxed-out\" version with the inclusion of double row diamond bezel, Pave dial with ruby indicies, and full 18K gold case and integrated bracelet construction. It represents a period where AP was operating at the highest level of the Haute Joaillerie category, producing watches that were less about telling time and more about demonstrating absolute mastery of gem-setting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eA stack of rare upgrades\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat makes this piece so rare is the layering of rare catalog options that usually appear individually. Finding a double-row diamond bezel is rare; finding it paired with a ruby-indexed pavé dial and the \"ring-style\" integrated bracelet is nearly unheard of.  The bracelet itself is a technical feat, utilizing a complex, circular-link construction that feels fluid on the wrist despite being solid 18k yellow gold. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition and verified\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe condition of this watch is excellent, which is critical for a piece with this much surface area of gold and stones. The 18k yellow gold case and the intricate \"ring\" bracelet remain sharp and tight, showing no signs of polishing or wear. The diamond pavé dial is clean, and the rubies provide a sharp, vibrant contrast against the gold. Mechanically, the manual-wind movement is running strong after passing our test bench. Notably, the bracelet is exceptionally long, a rare find for these integrated designs which are often shortened to fit previous owners better.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe heavy-hitter’s AP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is for the collector who wants a piece of Audemars Piguet history that exists entirely outside the shadow of the Royal Oak. It carries a massive presence and a weight that reflects its solid gold construction and the density of the factory stone setting. This is a singular opportunity to own a reference that rarely, if ever, surfaces with this specific combination of upgrades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe offer bracelet extension and cutting by our professional in-house jewelers.
