Audemars Piguet
1980s Audemars Piguet Ultra-Thin 18K WG "Cal. 2080" Silver Dial
Although Audemars Piguet may be best known for their Royal Oak series, notably designed by Gerald Genta, AP had a long lineage of interesting timepieces both before the conceptualization of the Royal Oak and after. Primarily consisting of dress models, Audemars Piguet produced some highly collectible chronographs and dress models that were stylistically, in many cases, very ahead of their time.
Sophisticated and simple, this classically designed ultra-thin dress watch from Audemars Piguet is all business and no frills, but downright elegant. The 32mm case size may seem small, though the utilization of the large silver dial gives this watch a wrist presence that wears much larger than its measurements without sacrificing its charming style.
