AP Millenary Pianoforte (for SalmanQ8 and others)
Hi SalmanQ8 and others,
As promised (though a week late), I would bring my Audemars Piguet Millenary Pianoforte out of the safe and take some photos. I bought this from European Watch Co (Boston MA) around June/July 2011.
I have not retrieved the HUGE case (in a Piano shaped box) from the downstairs basement, but if subject to enough requests I can do so. 
Sorry about the poor picture quality of the rear of the watch - the light was terrible and I'm using an iPhone 4S.

Fantastic Pics :-)
Was looking forward to them, Thank You so much for taking them, are the white piano keys mother of pearl? The Date window at 3 is amazing, the execution allows for the seamless flow of the Piano keys, the newer case with the two step design is imo more at...
Dial info, plus displayback photo
Hi SalmanQ8, The inner circle dial is definitely mother of pearl, though I am unsure about the piano keys. The uniformity of colour for the white keys suggests they might be enamel or some other material. The roman numerals are white gold, which look terr...
I'll request a shot of the box.
I have seen it but many perhaps have not, and it is absolutely spectacular. And the watch is really under appreciated IMO; it is a terrific execution and one of my favorite Millenaries. Thanks for sharing it :-)
Photos of the AP Millenary Pianoforte box and case
I must admit, it's better looking than I remembered it when I packed it away! To give you some idea of its size, the external cardboard box measures 39cm (15.4 inches) wide. external box Piano case inside box case fully open next to boxing Like a piano fr...
Thank you. One of the things to love about AP.
Not on every model, but certain LEs have had some of the best boxes / packaging going. This Pianoforte for sure, the Survivor, the Offshore Polaris and subsequent carbon Alinghi, etc.
very cool!!!
great looking box. out of curiosity, which AP model features a similar "box" for a minute repeater to enhance its sound?
