The Reference 5610BA
A distinctive creation by Audemars Piguet, the present 18k gold coin wristwatch designated as reference 5610BA from 1980 transforms a classic twenty-dollar coin into a refined horological object. Crafted by carefully fusing two identical coins into a discreet, ultra-thin timepiece. One coin forms the visible exterior, while the second is hollowed to house the precision watch movement hidden inside. The coin is expertly cut along its edge, allowing the front face to open on a concealed hinge and reveal the dial beneath without disturbing the original design. Master artisans align and join the matching coins so the seams are nearly invisible, preserving the appearance of a single untouched coin while integrating the refined mechanics and finishing associated with Audemars Piguet craftsmanship. Elegant, rare, and highly collectible, it exemplifies inventive craftsmanship and stands as both a conversation piece and a work of watchmaking artistry.
