Some are much more charming than others. This watch strikes me (no pun intended, given that it is a minute repeater) as very charming. It’s getting hard to find, too, especially in rose gold (the vast majority were made in yellow gold). Audemars Piguet is a top manufacture, who proves their horological wherewithal with a steady stream of complicated watches. Sure, the Royak Oaks get all of the attention, but AP produces much more classical styles as well. Take this jump hour minute repeater in rectangular 18k rose gold case for example, with reference number 25723.002. The 18k rose gold case measures 31mm long by 29mm wide by 8mm thick. Sapphire crystal and alternating polished and brushed surfaces on this elegant watch case. Movement is the AP Caliber 2865 with manual winding and decorated with Cotes de Geneve. Movement provides hour, quarter hour and minutes repetition. Dial is white enamel with applied gold numerals to mark the minutes. Hours are shown in the window below 12 o'clock. Seconds are in the rectangular subdial at 6 o'clock. The minutes are displayed with a beautifully executed Cathedral style hand. Strap is black AP alligator with an 18k tang clasp. The last published retail price of this extremely limited, excellent condition repeater was $169,000. Watch will be delivered with original box and papers.
