Audemars Piguet Two-Tone Dress Watch – Braided Bezel with Diamond Markers, Cal. 2003, c. 1970s

A sublime showcase of Audemars Piguet’s artisanal mastery, this rare 1970s dress watch is distinguished by its ultra-thin two-tone case—crafted in 18K yellow and white gold—and its intricately braided bezel that frames the dial with quiet elegance. Measuring 28mm across and 33mm lug-to-lug, the watch wears delicately yet with undeniable presence.

The silver dial features a unique hand-finished diagonal texture that shimmers with a subtle sparkle effect under light, further elevated by diamond hour markers at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock. This understated play of texture and brilliance offers a refined expression of vintage luxury.

Powering the watch is the legendary Calibre 2003, one of the thinnest mechanical movements ever made, originally developed by Jaeger-LeCoultre and beautifully finished by Audemars Piguet. The case remains unpolished and in excellent condition, preserving the original lines and detailing.

The timepiece is completed by its original leather strap and matching 18K yellow gold braided AP buckle—perfectly complementing the case’s motif and completing a rare, cohesive ensemble.

An elegant and highly collectible piece for discerning collectors of ultra-thin horology.
