REF. 5556BA, CASE NO. B71131, CIRCA 1982

The present timepiece is a highly attractive neo-vintage chronograph, featuring an integral Audemars Piguet gold bracelet and a rope-twist decorated case band. It stands as a prime example of the intricate openworked wristwatches for which Audemars Piguet is admired, showcasing an exceptional level of skeletonization and hand-finishing.

This superb timepiece exudes the effortless elegance that is unmistakably Audemars Piguet, reflecting the tradition and savoir-faire of the historic manufacture.

According to research, only a handful of these ‘dressy’ skeletonized chronographs were produced in the early 1980s. Its large size and technical complexity make it an immediate draw for collectors seeking lesser-known, ‘under-the-radar’ rarities from Audemars Piguet’s production.
