Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Singapore Grand Prix Chronograph

The reference number for the Grand Prix is 26190OS.OO.D003CU.01.Limited Edition of 188 Pieces

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Singapore Grand Prix Chronograph was created to commemorate the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix. It will be the first F1 race held in that country as well as the only nighttime F1 event ever. The forged carbon used for the case was inspired by Formula 1 cars.

The Singapore Grand Prix Chronograph watch uses several unique materials. The central section of the case is wrought from forged carbon which has been used previously by Audemars Piguet before in watches such as the Team Alinghi Forged Carbon and Royal Oak Carbon Concept Tourbillon watch. The material is not only functional, but is lightweight and extremely hard. The carbon's look is altered by machining the surface creating a unique appearance that catches light producing a beautiful effect. The black carbon case middle is accented by stricking red chronograph push-pieces and a red rubber -clad crown. The look is pulled together with the perforated black leather strap with red stitching and a stainless steel folding clasp in the shape of the Audemars Piguet initials.

The watch features a self-winding Audemars Piguet Calibre 3126/3840 movement comprised of 365 components and has a power reserve up to 60 hours. The barrel spring improves rating precision by supplying constant force for a longer period of time. All parts are hand-decorated, mainplate rhodium-plated - beveled and circular grained and bridges adorned with "cotes de Geneve" motif.

With UV light present...

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Limited Edition for Chronopassion

Audemars Piguet has created a new Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph, it is a titanium limited edition developed for a highly popular Paris-based retailer named Chronopassion located on the well known Rue St. Honore. The beautiful titanium case has a microbille bead-blasted - or sand blasted as we call it here in the states - finish, which creates a look of frosted metal. The surface of the octagonal Royal Oak bezel has a microbille bead-blasted finish as well, though the beveled edge is a high polish which is matched nicely by the polishing on the eight hexagonal bezel screws. The standard Royal Oak "Grand Tapisserie" waffle pattern dial features white gold Arabic markers and hands with a luminous treatment for easy readability, and a large magnified date window at 3 o'clock. Each timepiece has a black rubber strap and a microbille bead-blasted titanium folding clasp. The case back is engraved with "Limited Edition Chronopassion" and the limited edition number of the watch.The Chronopassion Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph is limited edition of 50 pieces.

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Chronopassion Limited Edition uses the 3126/3840 caliber movement, a movement used in several of AP's limited Edition creations as of late - such as the Survivor and the Grand Prix models. Comprised of 365 carefully finished parts, the 3126/3840 has a rapid-adjust date display, stop seconds, and a chronograph complication with 30-minute and 12-hour totalizers and a power reserve of approximately 60 hours. It has a variable-inertia balance with eight masselotte weights, a fast date correction and a highly stable balance cock, as well as the massive 22-karat gold rotor that winds the mainspring in both of its directions of rotation. An anti-magnetic strongbox cage protects the caliber's precision against the negative effects of magnetic fields. It also has finely polished screw and jewel settings, a perlage on the plate and undersides of the bridges, and Cotes de Geneve finishing on the bridges.

Audemars Piguet "classic" collections

The Piguet, the Audemars collections. You will find stunning watches from Audemars Piguet, especially the Grandes Complications from Renaud&Papi which are for me, as impressive as the Grandes Complications from Patek.

Audemars Piguet John Schaeffer Tradition

The picture above is the Audemars Piguet John Schaeffer Tradition watch, the hours and minutes only version.

What a special watch ! All the details are very classic but when you gather them, you get a quite original timepiece.

Obviously, the point we notice at first glance is the cushion shape of the case. The platinum case is large (43mm) and due to its shape and its thinness it appears to be even larger than it is actually.

The second detail you quickly notice is the beautiful hands. We call them in french: "aiguilles cathedrale". They give a "vintage" atmosphere to the Audemars Piguet watch.

Even if there is no second hand, the purety of the dial makes it very attractive.

The caliber used, due to the will to get a thin and slender watch is the AP 2120 (version of the JLC caliber used in the Jumbo without the date wheel). It is an almost perfect caliber for this watch due to its delicacy. Trouble is that it is a bit too small for the watch. You don't feel it when you watch the dial, you see it when you turn the watch over.

The Audemars Piguet watch has a strong presence on the wrist... but maybe a bit too much.

Anyway, this Tradition is a beautiful and attractive watch.

Audemars Piguet Millenary Carbon One Tourbillon Chronograph

Audemars Piguet pioneered the use of forged carbon in timepiece design and production, inspired by the use of the material in the highly competitive world of world class yacht racing. The world's first forged carbon case was executed in the highly coveted and now iconic Alinghi Team All Carbon.

The calibre 2884 movement continues the three dimensional design motif, where innovative use of dial space and movement design allows the movement maven to enjoy an unparalleled view of the mechanical wonder inside even from the dialside. This approach was started several years ago by AP, beginning with the Tradition d'Excellence N°5,followed by the Millenary with deadbeat seconds, and carried on with the classic Jules Audemars Chronometer with Audemars Piguet escapement.

Combining all the best talent in each of the major modalities of a true manufacture - Engineering,Design,Watchmaking,the Audemars Piguet Millenary Carbon One Tourbillon Chronograph utilizes the incomparable AP in-house resources of both Le Brassus and Le Locle.
