With Audemars Piguet presentation box and certificate.

Audemars Piguet created their first wristwatch with minute repeater complication in 1907 for the famed American industrialist John Schaeffer. This customised pioneer version was created in a cushion-shape and the numerals on the dial personalised with the letters of his name, instead of numerals. This present limited series watch represents Audemars Piguet's reinvention of this original and classic design.

For an illustration of the original John Schaeffer wristwatch see Brunner, Pfeiffer-Belli & Wehrli, Audemars Piguet, p. 255.
