What is the most valuable Audemars Piguet model?
Audemars Piguet: From Le Brassus to the World
Founded in 1875 in Le Brassus, Switzerland, Audemars Piguet remains one of the few independent Swiss watchmakers still controlled by its founding families. The company produces approximately 45,000 watches per year, with the Royal Oak accounting for the vast majority of output.
The Royal Oak, designed by Gerald Genta in 1972, revolutionized the luxury watch industry by proving that a stainless-steel sport watch could command premium prices. Its distinctive octagonal bezel with exposed screws and integrated bracelet created an entirely new category of luxury sport watches.
The Royal Oak Offshore
Introduced in 1993, the Royal Oak Offshore took the original design and made it bigger, bolder, and sportier. Originally 42mm (large for its era), the Offshore has been produced in sizes up to 44mm with various case materials including forged carbon and ceramic. Limited editions and collaborations (such as the Offshore Rubens Barrichello and Arnold Schwarzenegger) are particularly collectible.
Code 11.59: A New Chapter
The Code 11.59, launched in January 2019, represents Audemars Piguet's most ambitious new collection in decades. Available exclusively in 18k gold, it features a complex case architecture with a round shape that incorporates both curved and angular elements. While initially controversial, the collection has grown to include impressive complications including a universale, minute repeater, and flying tourbillon.
