Notes

as the “Cioccolatone” for its soft, square contours stands among Audemars Piguet’s most distinctive form watches. Its oversized 18K yellow gold case, sculpted with elegant curvature and generous proportions, delivers both visual presence and refined architectural balance.

The silvered dial, adorned with applied markers and a neatly framed subsidiary seconds register, offers a serene and harmonious composition that underscores the maison’s dedication to understated luxury. Within beats a finely finished manual-winding movement, reflecting the brand’s long-standing mastery of traditional haute horlogerie.

Rarely encountered and highly coveted, this “Cioccolatone Jumbo” embodies Audemars Piguet’s artistry at the crossroads of design, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance.
