Notes

This watch is a replica of a model created in 1944. Since 1920, Audemars Piguet appeared to be a great specialist ofwristwatches with calendar showing the triple date and the moon phases. In 1978, they created an extra-flat self-winding movement and equipped it with a perpetual calendar system. The flatest movement in the world was made by Audemars Piguet in 1946 and still appears in some of the classics of the House.
