It was 1875 when Jules Louis Audemars joined forces with Edward Auguste Piguet giving life to the now extremely famous Audemars Piguet watch factory. They worked together to develop watches equipped with complex mechanisms and precision still at the base of its production. Over the years Audemars Piguet has been a source of inspiration and an example for many watch brands due to the incredible innovations, it has been able to bring and for the large number of challenges it has faced. Among the very important watches, Audemars Piguet has been able to produce during all its history probably the complication of the perpetual calendar is the favorite of the Swiss brand. The good aesthetic success of these creations was very important as well, paying attention to every detail so that the watch could also be tasteful, sometimes using unusual materials. The lot offered here fully reflects these characteristics and it is a pearl for its beauty with a thin and circular stepped case in white gold with snap on back, short down-tuned lugs, which work proportionately well together. The special salmon-pink dial is a beauty and very uncommon to find on this reference and became even more attractive with the addiction of the recessed subsidiary dials for the months, days of the week and date, and moon phase. Total production documented at 342 pieces: 244 pieces in yellow gold, 29 in pink gold, 37 in platinum and only 32 in white gold like the present lot, so this is an understated example of an Audemars Piguet Quantieme Perpetuel wristwatch with box tag and papers.204
