Very rare Audemars Piguet (Mega) quartz Model 6001ST - possibly the first sale here
Up for sale is an very rare Audemars Piguet 6001ST Quartz from mid 70s. Size is 35x42mm and it wears big due to the size and it’s original bracelet.
This 6001ST shares one of the most important icons with 5402ST - the AP logo at 6 position. Overall condition is excellent with some scratches on bracelet. The luminous marker has started tropic looks.
I am quoting what the auction house wrote. And this model with case number of 1003X is the very close brother of the one from auction house (that one has case number of 10031).
Asking USD7500 shipped. Wire transfer is expected.
Quoted
Launched in 1974, reference 6001 was available in steel, yellow gold or white gold. It was the first watch Audemars Piguet ever produced with a quartz movement. Faithful to its values of offering the most accurate watches to their clients, the brand used caliber 2510, the most accurate caliber of the time with a maximum of 1 second difference per month. A simple pressure on the pusher added next to the crown would correct this second.
Featuring a very similar design as the one of the Royal Oak, this watch is the true descendant of the famous Gerald Genta design. Preserved in fantastic condition, the present watch is an extremely rare example of the first model Audemars Piguet produced with a quartz movement.
