Trying to find a place next to a watch as iconic as the Royal Oak is no easy feat. But in 2019, Audemars Piguet took on the challenge and launched the CODE 11.59 collection as the new generation in their catalogue for the younger, more contemporary clientele.

Elegant yet sporty, the arched profile from the double-curved crystal streamlines the whole architecture as the most refined new breed from Audemars Piguet. The arched profile plays with depth, perspective and light for a unique optic experience. While its internal surface is shaped like a dome, it is vertically curved from 6 to 12 o’clock.

Crafted in the warmth of pink gold in a 41mm case, this variant of the CODE 11.59 features a sophisticated hue of blue. Rich yet understated, the two-toned lacquered blue complements the pink accents perfectly within the dial. Beautifully balanced, the standard 3-6-9 chronograph display layout is adopted with two slightly oversized chronograph counters, along with an inconspicuous date aperture that sits between 4 and 5 o'clock with matching colour date wheel. Powered by the calibre 4401, a column wheel activated vertical clutch flyback chronograph that provides 72 hours of power reserve. Furthermore, the present example is offered in “like-new” condition by the original owner with its full set of accessories.
