Insider: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Equation Du Temps ref. 26603. Pure Perfection.

During a private meeting with Audemars Piguet we were able to experience several timepieces including the Royal Oak Equation of Time —Equation Du Temps— which in our opinion is probably one of the most amazing complications by Audemars Piguet. The Equation of Time watch exudes class, character and charm. This watch comes with custom sunrise and sunset times and perpetual calendar with astronomic moon. It is available in stainless steel or rose gold with a crocodile strap either in black or brown respectively.

Fitted with the caliber 2120 /2808 manufacture this beauty has a power reserve of up to 40 hours and 425 parts. Sunrise and sunset times can be changed upon customer's request as well as decoration to the oscillating weight on the watch. This watch features a perpetual calendar with day, date, month and leap year, astronomical moon phases and sunrise/sunset times. The watch dial comes with the legendary 'grande tappisserie' and anodized blue hands for all the functions with the exception of the hour and minute hands.

Sticker Price for this beauty $68,700.00
