Thank you Sir!
I was very lucky to find such a nice piece in top condition... Couldn't resist.
Given a bit of love and a new strap from the AP Service Centre and that's what I got back!
AP Huitième - a classic well over 20yrs down...
Just thought I'd share some photos of an often forgotten classic: the steel AP Huitième from the 80's powered by Jaeger's fine automatic base movement ticking in so many AP's. The size of 40mm chosen back then makes it still a perfect dress watch today. S...

That's what I have been looking for a long time!!!!
Very, very congrats!! I am envious, but it looks very nice on your wrist in the nice shirts, suits. Congrats! Ken
Thanks...
Michael and Ken - there\'s actually a nice one for sale in Italy (Chrono24), the only non-Chronograph piece I can see currently and it comes with a clasp. The way to your goal is where half the fun is... Good luck!
Very nice!!!
Love the White dial with blue hands!!! The finishing on the case is lovely too!!! Beautiful combo!!! Thx for sharing!!
Wow!
Didn't know that AP had such watches! Always learning something new in the forums. Thanks for sharing! J
Not quite a classic? [nt]
This beautiful watch encompasses everything I personally find really attractive in a watch. Clear, clean dial, three hands ( plus or preferably minus a date ) And of the highest quality. But in my own, admittedly irrational view ( I guess we all have some...
Thanks for your feedback Colin...
There have been indeed models of the Huitième family without the "Audemars Piguet" arching over the dial - but in terms of elegance and simplicity, the three hand versions seemed the most compelling to me, and I agree with your assessment in that respect....
Very nice.
I've never seen this one. Love the 3 hands and the date aperture. Thank you for sharing. M4
Never seen this before...
but I think this is really nice. The blued hands also look very cool with the white dial.
Love it, one of the models that cemented my love of the brand and for me still an icon...
great photos and looks awesome on your wrist! Thanks for sharing. TM
Thanks M4, Richard and Thomas...
Glad you like these Huitièmes, they\'re surely not the first line that comes to mind when talking AP but have a lot going for them nonetheless... The fact that this line as well as the "Eduard Piguet" have been discontinued makes them all the more special...
