I was looking for a luxury wristwatch with a classic look. The Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Tourbillion Chronograph wasn’t my first choice to be honest. I wasn’t very familiar with this line of watches. I came across a review of it online and became intrigued. The look was classic and refined, yet also modernized. It was exactly what I wanted in a new wristwatch.

Audemars Piguet is one of my favorite horology manufacturers. Audemars Piguet’s Jules Audemars Tourbillion Chronograph in 18k Rose Gold is a fine watch. I chose this piece over similar models because of its unique dial. I am a huge fan of tourbillion complications in general. The Jules Audemar Tourbillion Chronograph in 18k Rose Gold features tourbillion and chronograph functions.

The brand name of Audemars Piguet may not be something first than one can chose for luxury watch brand. It's easier to remember Patek Philippe or Cartier brands. However in the watchmaking world the fame of Audemars Piguet stands among the top part of the market leaders. If we try to write down some top 10 or even top 5 – this brand will be in.

Audemars Piguet, the well-known watchmaker, decided to walk in his chosen path, and the journey ended up with the creation of the Royal Oak Offshore Titanium Grande Complication. This watch is noteworthy for the complications incorporated in to it, the aesthetic design as well as its overall perfection.

The Royal Oak Offshore Diver is basically made of forged carbon. Audemars Piguet is constantly innovating in new technologies and materials to create timepieces that are both durable and advanced (technologically speaking). This is not the first time that AP has used carbon on their timepieces. The Alinghi Team timepiece was privileged with forged carbon too.

In 2012, there are 40 years after legendary company Audemars Piguet had produced simple sport luxury watch Royal Oak. This first model was released in the stylish steel case and was more expensive than gold Rolex and Patek Philippe. Such grandiose success of Royal Oak, which design was created by master of watchmaking Gerald Genta, gave the birth to the whole class of sport luxury watches that are improbably actual today.

Audemars Piguet’s watches are normally very luxurious with a small touch of a classic look that we all love. This model, the Millenary 4101, is no exception to AP’s traditional taste. This watch´s design matured in the mind of the AP´s team before creating the real deal. This timepiece is privileged with an oval caliber produced in the factory located at Le Brassus. This manufacture is popular thanks to the quality control and processes that every timepiece has to go through before launching it to the market. The designer of this fabulous timepiece has bet a little bit in its functional and structural aspect when speaking about its movement.
