Gerard (jlux) kicks off the week by showcasing a standout piece from his collection: the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 with a captivating burgundy dial. His post invites collectors to appreciate the nuanced design elements that make this reference a personal favorite, sparking a discussion on its unique aesthetic appeal compared to other AP models.
Definitely one of my collection favorites.
Best,
Gerard
Key Points from the Discussion
- The burgundy dial on the Code 11.59 is particularly striking and is considered by some to be more appealing than similar dials on the Royal Oak.
- Despite the dial's beauty, the unique case architecture, specifically the 'squareness' when viewed from the side, can be a polarizing design element for some collectors.
- The dial's smoked edges and inner tachymeter ring are key design features that subtly enhance its visual depth and sophistication.
- The strap choice significantly elevates the overall aesthetic of the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59, making it a desirable addition even for collectors who already own other Code 11.59 complications like the Star Wheel or Onyx Tourbillon.
