initials AP
She signs at AP.
When does she go to AP to design dials?
Audemars would be mix a Genta and AP.
Or treat a Nautilus.

For as long as she doesn't sign them 'Code 1159' I don't think we need to worry...;-) [nt]

LOL !!! Perhaps AP (the watch company) ...
charges AP (the enameler) a license fee to sign the initials AP ! 😂
what a great post, Gordon
You know how much I love this piece! I look forward reading more about in your next post.
Now would I have asked her to sign the certificate? probably not. Because, Im not as smart as you! What a great idea!!! Well done my friend.

Hi Christian, as mentioned in my reply to Russell above, I have done...
this signing ceremony previously with my Ulysse enamel dial watch. Hence, I just knew I had to bring the certificate with me JUST IN CASE I got to meet Madam Porchet !

I would love that, Gordon :-)

It looks forward to your arrival here. 😇
It looks forward to your arrival here. 😇

Dials with A.P. are designed and supervised by her in her workshop; dials signed A. Porchet are actually made by her.
Wow, what a great experience, G! It surely makes your watch even more special to you. Enjoy it big time! [nt]

complete with its creator’s autograph!! 😄
Love This Post!
I fondly remember meeting Ms. Porchet two years ago in NYC where we discussed your Rousseau Lion! What a wonderful artist and lady! And yes, if I owned a piece by Ms. Porchet, I would've asked her if she would do the great honor of signing the certificate. What a true pleasure! And what a delightful post to see another WatchProSite member who is a patron of this enamel artwork meet a celebrated artist. And for a watch dial to meet its maker! I'm sure Ms. Porchet is also pleased to see her eagle back at her nest. But in this case a lion back in her den!
Thanks Patrick for your kind comments ! In spite of her celebrity status, Ms Porchet is a...
humble and friendly person.
She has my absolute respect for her as an individual and an artist !!
