I actually just noticed it is an AP when I zoomed in! I know that older APs included a range of interesting designs, but this one is new to me. This must be a special edition, correct? What’s the story of its production? Thanks for sharing.

sold into italy based on mille miglia race. a ferrari on dial hand engraved by oliver vaucher

only made one of this style. the standard model came in gold and possible other cars featured on engraved dial.

Oh my!

They used to make them heavy!

Now they make them hollowed out to save on the gold and platinum materials.

That is super cool!

I know AP is considered a big brand watch maker but they still make very innovative and beautiful watches i think! very cool!
