More About Audemars Piguet
Audemars Piguet is a traditional luxury watchmaking company based in La Brassus Switzerland. Founded in 1874, the house is the oldest in Haute Horlogerie which has never been sold by the founding family.
The company takes its name from its two founders, Jules-Louis Audemars and Edward-Auguste Piguet, whose partnership was based on a productive division of labor: Audemars produced and assembled the movements and Piguet ensured that the movements were precisely regulated. Their early work was in complicated pocket watches, and featured models with a perpetual calendar, chronograph, and minute repeater.
In 1891, Audemars Piguet produced the smallest repeater movement in the world, and they began to focus on making wristwatches by 1893, though fob watches were still prevalent. In 1920 they produced a fob watch with 16 complications, including a tourbillon, equation of time indicator, and a blue enamel dial engraved with stars that reproduced the night sky above London.
Innovations continued to follow into the 20th century, including increasingly smaller and flatter movements, and a re-introduction of the skeleton watch in 1934.
