The present minute repeating openface pocket watch manufactured in 1914 and sold the same year in New York embodies Audemars Piguet’s rich history. The repeat mechanism is activated through the slide in the band and the repeat has a clear tonal quality and is enhanced by the 29 jewel “Extra” movement. The slim case with 14k gold dial highlighted by black enamel Arabic numerals has a modern flair that is later repeated on fine complicated wristwatches. Pocket watches are undervalued in the international market today, however these timepieces are examples of the traditional past and provide a rare opportunity for connoisseurs to own a masterpiece.
The present watch is fresh to the market, to the best of our knowledge.
