SIHH 2018 live: Audemars Piguet
Strong collection this year with a focus on the Royal Oak Offshore to celebrate the 25th anniversary. New bracelet for the Lady Millenary. For me the star of the year is the Tourbillon Chronograph which features an original dial architecture which makes me think about a fan. Another hit is the RO Perpetual Calendar ultra thin. There is a lot of energy around the brand and I can feel it. FHB told me that the in house integrated chronograph would be released in 2019.
Audemars Piguet is very strong now, everything is going according to plan.
At SIHH 2013, I posted that the emphasis was to strengthen the foundations of the brand for the coming years. That process is complete, and it was very successful. Now we will see new models, like the 2019 launch of the integrated chronograph movement you mention.
Francois Bennahmias has always been a man with a plan. The AP Board must be ecstatic over what he has accomplished during his tenure, and where he has this brand going.
I’ve been particularly impressed by the AP RO Perpetual Calendar. I was afraid when I rade that it had a case size of 41mm 😱
Well, I tried it and it immediately made love to my wrist due to its thinness 😍 and despite the fact this watch was in full platinum (its weight is around 230g which is pretty heavy).
I can imagine that AP will release one in steel or, why not, one in full black ceramic (limited edition) like the one we saw for the last Only Watch auction. That would be top cool.
This AP is one of the stars of this 2018 SIHH and will become a star with collectors for me.
Best wishes

Thank you!
Terrific photos. AP brought the house this year. Wow.
A couple of the offerings intrigue me, like the 44mm Offshore in green and khaki. Such an original piece and, without doubt, not for everyone.
Thanks again. I appreciate the great work the moderators are putting in getting information to us from the show.
