Jules Audemars Extra-thin

This year, the Jules Audemars collection welcomes an elegant new version featuring an understated design inspired by the Reference 5271 model created to mark the launch of the extra-thin Calibre 2120.

Featuring contemporary dimensions and sleek, pure lines, this timepiece proudly displays its beating heart, the timeless movement introduced in 1967 and considered by many specialists as "the world's most beautiful self-winding movement". Calibre 2120, entirely designed, developed and crafted by the Manufacture Audemars Piguet, is an integral part of the history and the legend that forged the brand's reputation in the field of extra-thin mechanical movements.

At less than 7 mm thick, the new Jules Audemars watch is entirely in line with this exceptional continuity. The reliability and performance of its movement are matched by the exquisite finesse of its decorations stemming from the meticulous care lavished by watchmakers on finishing all the components. The mainplate alone features five different diameters of circular graining. All the bridges are chamfered and polished by hand. A connoisseur's eye will revel in the remarkable craftsmanship devoted to the exterior and internal angles. Even the hidden surfaces have been treated with particular care, such as the lower part which is circular grained.

 

The pink gold case is also beautifully finished, with regular circular graining on the interior and a set of finely executed and complex finishes playing on alternating vertical and horizontal satin-brushed zones that create a striking contrast with gleaming polished areas. The extremely slender bezel enables a generous dial opening that contributes to the sense of visual lightness. The model comes in two versions with a silvered or black dial, adorned with dainty pink gold hands and hour-markers. This more contemporary model gives fresh impetus to the Jules Audemars collection while preserving the essence of classicism and perpetuating watchmaking traditions through this magnificent movement with its extra-thin profile and hand-crafted decoration. Over the years, Audemars Piguet has consistently cultivated its history, pursuing ever more advanced technical and aesthetic challenges while never losing sight of the traditional values that have governed it for over 135 years: the Jules Audemars Perpetual Calendar and the Jules Audemars Extra-thin are an eloquent tribute to this time-honoured philosophy.

[Bertroo]

Beh...ormai è entrato a far parte dei calibri AP...come l'1861 per Omega...è praticamente un manifattura...

[Airangel]

ah Robbè! ma che si offendono se dici che è una vergogna anche per loro spacciare calibri non loro, per loro e di manifattura??

solo con iwc a tag te la prendi?

ragazzi togliamoci le fette di salame da tifosi da stadio....solo perchè ci piacciono alcune maison le difendiamo e altre le massacriamo.....

poi Ap che.....non era capace di farsi da sola un extraplate?

[Patrizio]
