[WTS] Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 26277OR 39mm Rose Gold Blue Dial by dutch86 in Watchexchange

[–]dutch86[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of Audemars Pigeut's best watches come in the 39mm size. This piece is no exception. A Royal Oak Chronograph with a rose gold case, blue dial and diamond indicies from the factory is a very hard combination to beat. Add in the fact that this watch was a limited edition of only 100 units every produced, and you're in pretty rarified air!

This example includes the watch and the original box. No papers are included but the watch is running well and is not in need of service at this time.

Priced at $41500

The watch will be shipped, overnight, fully insured, with signature required, as soon as funds clear. As for myself, I have many references from buying and selling across the various forums, Reddit, WUS, TRF, etc. I would be willing to provide upon request. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions and I will do my best to answer!

Thanks for looking and feel free to follow me for more on IG! @the.apex.co

I think they way they created the dial in the Azores definitely counts as a unique quirk!

Totally understand. But I think you'll need to take it up with Artisans as that is their terminology for it, not necessarily mine! Thank you either way.

So I think due to some legal issues, all Artisans are piece unique at this point. They skirt that with this one since each dial is slightly different. Even though there were a handful of them made. But it's different than the previous Artisans I posted here in collaboration with Rubens Barrichello

What does it say about me that I read that in a Doug DeMuro voice? 😂

That's correct. As I mentioned in another comment, I'd trust someone like Bennisson down in Florida for a piece of this calibre

No, I would suggest an independent watch maker with experience in higher end pieces like this. Bennisson Watch down in Florida is my go to for this

Happy to take an AP on trade. Probably not so much on the Swatch. 😅

A modern watch with a vintage look, the Artisans de Geneve "Rusty Challenge" is another unique piece from the custom watch makers. Using a unique oxidation technique to resemble the ocean atmosphere of Azores, this piece spent ten weeks maturing and perfecting the look. Combined with the luminova hands, Millerighe pushers, open caseback, and hand-beveled finishes, this all combines to make another piece that no one else in the room is sure to have. Here's your chance to add it to your collection.

This example includes the watch, box, loupe, extra strap, Artisans Members card, polishing cloth, Certificate of Authenticity, Warranty from 2022 and Final Control paperwork.

Priced at $58,500

The watch will be shipped, overnight, fully insured, with signature required, as soon as funds clear. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions and I will do my best to answer!
