Audemars Piguet

ROYAL OAK CONCEPT LAPTIMER MICHAEL SCHUMACHER Ref: 26221 In 2010, F1 legend and Audemars Piguet ambassador Michael Schumacher posed an apparently simple question to the engineers at Audemars Piguet: would it be possible to create a mechanical wrist watch ...  

This new AP video is quite possibly my favorite! The watch will retail for $229,500 USD and is available at Audemars Piguet New York, Audemars Piguet Bal Harbour Shops, and Audemars Piguet Las Vegas - The Shops at Crystals. / 888-214-6858.

And I hear it is already in stock! Bravo, AP, on so many levels... Thanks Michael for bringing us this news. TM

Research Episode #1??? WOW, AP is on horological fire! And you are correct, this watch is available for immediate purchase in both New York and Bal Harbour, Florida. Appreciate your thoughts on this watch, Thomas.

Cheers, Anthony ...  

Caliber remind me of Richard Mille, but what a superb combination of design and complication !

This new Schumacher is not one that I would ever particularly covet, but it's a mechanical masterpiece. I marvel at the movement. Credit to AP for its dedication to the craft in developing such a timepiece. M4

...at 221 pieces with a $200k price tag--it will be interesting. I understand why they chose 221, but that is a lot of watches at that price point IMHO. I not a fan of the case, but the movement and features look amazing. I wish it weren't concept case an... 

.. it has almost everything.... Style, design, and my favorite sports super star. Wold love to see it in person.... Ken

All the F1 drivers will be at the boutique door the minute the watch hits the store. AP enthusiasts you better get in line first. Bill

Thanks for showing this to us. I very much like some aspects of this - the colour scheme with hints of rose gold, the evolution of the Concept case. The technical achievement is quite something, obviously. It's not a complication I'm personally attracted ... 

What's the water resistance? I am not in love with this new Concept case design. I think previous iterations looked nicer.

It's coming.
