In an era increasingly dominated by the steel sports watch, this piece was a deliberate statement. Creating a pocket watch of this caliber was a tribute to the brand's own history, a demonstration of skills that had been honed for over a century. It's a piece built not for the wrist, but for close appreciation of the watchmaker's and jeweler's craft, representing a part of the Audemars Piguet legacy that stands entirely separate from the Royal Oak.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Caliber Revealed And Framed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe defining feature of this pocket watch is the complete skeletonization of its manual-wind movement. Every component has been meticulously openworked and hand-engraved, transforming the functional caliber into a delicate gold sculpture. There's no traditional dial; the mechanics are the display. This intricate work is framed by a bezel set with a vibrant combination of brilliant-cut diamonds and rich, red rubies. The 45mm 18K yellow gold case provides the substance and weight to anchor this display of high craft.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlawless Setting And Original Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe diamond and ruby-set bezel is immaculate, with all stones present, secure in their settings, and brilliant.
