Details
An Exercise In Pure Form
Before the Royal Oak changed the landscape of modern watchmaking, Audemars Piguet built its legacy on elegant, masterfully crafted dress watches. This piece is a perfect expression of that heritage. Produced in the 1980s, it represents an era when the brand operated as both a high-horology manufacture and a master jeweler. The design is an exercise in restraint and precision, where the case, bezel, and bracelet are conceived as a single, flowing object in solid 18-karat white gold.
White Gold, Black Dial, Diamond Hands
This configuration is both stark and incredibly refined. The deep black dial creates a powerful backdrop for the simple diamond-set hands, a subtle touch that elevates the entire piece without being overt. The ultra-thin profile and fully integrated bracelet allow the watch to wear like a second skin. It is a design that showcases Audemars Piguet's confidence in working with precious metals, creating a piece that is as much a bracelet as it is a timepiece.
A Study In Preservation
This example is in excellent condition. The integrated 18-karat white gold bracelet is in mint shape, flowing seamlessly from the well-preserved case. The black dial and its original diamond-set hands are perfect. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
A Statement Of Quiet Confidence
This is a watch for someone who understands that true luxury does not need to shout. It offers a level of design and manufacturing quality that is increasingly sought after by collectors looking beyond the hype of today's market. The manual-wind movement requires a daily interaction, a quiet ritual of winding that builds a physical connection between the owner and the machine. It is a confident choice that signals an appreciation for the deepest roots of one of watchmaking's most important names.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
