One of AP's greatest Openworked models... which one of you has it?!?

Piece Unique from 2012, made for a charity auction as I recall. Titanium case and polished Cermet bezel. I always prefer the 39mm Openworked models to the newer 41mm Double Balance Wheel versions, but this one added a wider chapter ring to frame the 2139 caliber.
Perhaps the essence of a unique piece!

Absolutely correct Mo.

I mentioned the wider chapter ring compared to the 39mm models, this is how AP covered the extra width of the case of course.
I take the blame, I should have been more clear in my post.

I know the watch is 41mm. I was pointing out that the difference between it and the more standard 15305 39mm is the wider chapter ring used to help cover the extra 2mm. These are all gorgeous watches, this particular timepiece is a super rare beast.
Incredible piece...

Nothing better than cermet - I wish there could be more pieces with this material!
