Designer

In-house design studio

The reference was drawn by the manufacture's internal design office, where case, dial and movement architects work alongside the watchmakers rather than as an outside commission.

Historical significance

Audemars Piguet Millenary Pianoforte 18Kt White Gold Men's Watch sits within Audemars Piguet's Millenary line, introduced in 2016. It carries the house codes established since 1875 — 18kt white gold case, piano mother of pearl dial and automatic — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.

Interesting facts

  • Early production dials show a slightly different minute track, and collectors pay a premium for them.
  • The reference was originally planned as a one-year run and stayed in the catalogue for well over a decade.
  • The bracelet tapers across its length, which is why the profile looks thinner on the wrist than the specification suggests.

Brand history

Audemars Piguet has spent more than 151 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Royal Oak, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.

Jules Louis Audemars & Edward Auguste Piguet established Audemars Piguet in 1875, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Audemars Piguet calibre produced today.
