Here is a classy Audemars Piguet Automatic Day-Date Ref. 255741BA gents full set. As one of the most coveted watch brand of all time, Audemars Piguet has made excellent timepieces for over 100 years. They put an emphasis on mechanical excellence over mass appeal, and their production runs remain smaller than many watch making companies. This dress watch is visually striking, but is also powered by an extremely sophisticated movement. The case also remains remarkably thin for the caliber of movement it houses. The 33mm case offers a more delicate look perfectly suited for a more formal outfit. With a huge 50 hour power reserve, the 3.5mm thick caliber 2124 movement is an impressive horological feat. In addition to telling time, there is also a day and date function. The push/pull crown and step bezel complete the case and add a bit of detail to the otherwise minimal case. The cream roman dial is formal and refined, offering a day and date calendar in the middle of the face. This piece has 2 bands that come with it, both black leather. The strap that is currently on it can fit between a 5.5 and 7.5 inch wrist, and is the perfect accent to the 18k gold case. Additionally, this watch comes with the original box, booklet, and papers. While at first glance this watch is simple, it boasts extremely fine finishes and a powerful movement. It is a fantastic dress watch that is the perfect option for formal occasions. It would make a fantastic gift or addition to any collection. Bid now!
