Adding yet another astonishing skeleton watch to its collection, Audemars Piguet welcomes the newest member of the Code 11.59 family.
With generations and millions of dollars spent on perfecting complications, the world’s most successful watch brands showcase mechanical beauty through stunning skeleton dial designs. This is a habit adopted by the Audemars Piguet family, who incorporate the eye-catching characteristic of many of the models featured in its portfolio of luxury Swiss watches. After generating quite a buzz with skeletonized examples of the Royal Oak, Audemars Piguet is proud to release the all-new Code 11.59 Self-Winding Flying Tourbillion Chronograph as the newest addition to the lineup. The Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet separates itself from the other sports models offered by the Swiss watchmaker, presenting an elegant look using a traditional circular case design. The case incorporates a blend of black ceramic and 18k pink gold, finishing its robust construction with a glare-proof sapphire crystal and caseback.

Beneath a black lacquered inner bezel that tracks minutes and seconds, a skeletonized chronograph layout provides an up-close view of the movement in action. Although a set of sub-dials indicate chronograph, hours, minutes, and central seconds functions, the star of the show is the magnificent flying tourbillon at the 6 o’clock position. Audemars Piguet’s in-house Calibre 2952 is made up of 479 individual parts and is responsible for holding a power reserve of 65 hours. The open backcase offers a perfect view of the pink gold ‘AP’ oscillating wheel, with commemorative engravings lining the outer portion to signify its limited production. Adding a sporty feel to the dress watch, Audemars Piguet equipped the Code 11.59 Flying Tourbillon Chronograph with a black rubber/nylon strap and matching pink gold AP folding clasp. Limited to only 50 pieces in the world, the all-new Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Self-Winding Flying Tourbillon Chronograph is currently available through an authorized dealer for $274,000.
