In 1966, Georges Golay took over Audemars Piguet the position of General Manager. In 1971, Carlo de Marchi, an Italian agent, approached this adventurous thoroughbred businessman. He asked for a multifunctional watch that would be suitable for both sports cars and elegant evening parties - the case and bracelet could be made of Steel consist of. Designer Gérald Genta had to help, Golay called him on the eve of the Basel Watch and Jewelry Fair and asked for an acceptable design for the next day.
The famous watch designer later painted Patek Philippe Nautilus, IWC Engineer or Bulgari Bulgari. When looking at the possible shape of the required watch, Genta remembered his childhood experience: at some point, he had observed a professional diver putting on and fastening his helmet. The rubber seal and several screws form a pressure-resistant connection with the protective clothing. These impressions mean that the watch design is reminiscent of the portholes on ships and at the same time expresses Ghent's preference for octagonal shapes. The night design was praised by Carlo de Marchi, and the internal watch called "Safari" was realized one after the other until the next Basel trade fair.
