The Audemars Piguet 150th anniversary novelties reveal new perpetual calendars and tourbillons across the Royal Oak and Code 11.59 lines. Two Royal Oak perpetual calendar models debut in 38 mm sizes, one crafted in stainless steel with a light blue Grande Tapisserie dial, the other in 18k pink gold with a beige dial. Both are powered by the new Calibre 7136, allowing all calendar functions to be adjusted directly from the crown for ease of use.
The release also introduces a Code 11.59 perpetual calendar in 18k pink gold with a soft green guilloché dial, as well as three limited-edition Code 11.59 flying tourbillons. These feature natural stone dials in red ruby root, blue sodalite, and green malachite, each paired with a matching gold case and the ultra-thin Calibre 2968. Together, the novelties highlight the brand’s craftsmanship, technical achievement, and ongoing evolution in watchmaking design.
