About Audemars Piguet: Pioneering Spirit and Iconic Design

Founded in 1875 in the Vallée de Joux, the brand blends avant-garde aesthetics with traditional finishing. From the Royal Oak to Royal Oak Offshore, Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet, and Millenary, AP creates watches recognized for architectural cases, integrated bracelets, and advanced complications. Our collection of pre-owned Audemars Piguet watches offers enthusiasts the chance to own a storied design with proven craftsmanship and modern wearability.

History of Audemars Piguet

Founded in Le Brassus by Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet, Audemars Piguet is renowned for tourbillons, minute repeaters, perpetual calendars, and the 1972 Royal Oak — the watch that defined the luxury sports category. The brand's independence has preserved its commitment to in-house calibers, meticulous hand finishing, and limited production. Pre-owned AP watches are sought after for their finishing quality, distinctive "Tapisserie" dials, and iconic octagonal bezel, making them a benchmark for collectors evaluating used Audemars Piguet timepieces.

"AP" stands for Audemars Piguet - a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1875, renowned for the Royal Oak, Royal Oak Offshore, and Code 11.59, as well as high complications and hand finishing.
AP combines advanced materials - including steel, ceramic, titanium, and precious metals -with intricate complications such as tourbillons, minute repeaters, and perpetual calendars. Extensive hand finishing and limited production further increase costs.
Prices for pre-owned AP watches vary widely by model, reference, material, and condition. Expect authenticated examples to range from under $20,000 to well over six figures for rarer Royal Oak, Offshore, or high-complication models.
Entry pricing on the secondary market depends on production year, configuration, and completeness. Select steel Royal Oak references without box/papers may sit lower in the range, but high-quality examples rarely price "cheap" relative to broader luxury watches.
Many AP models retain strong value due to design significance and collector demand, though performance varies by reference and market conditions. Buy the watch you love — and assess provenance, condition, and service history.
