In 2016, the Double Balance Wheel Openworked hit the industry 

The Audemars Piguet Frosted Gold Royal Oak Watch Review

And sent pretty big shockwaves through SIHH. It featured a completely new caliber along with a hands-finished, openworked double balance wheel mechanism (to not be mistaken with the double balance escapement). The timepiece was initially released inside a 41mm situation which was either stainless or rose gold, and today the hands-finished caliber 3132 will come in a white-colored gold situation calculating 37mm. But that is not it. Not really close. The brand new situation also features the FROSTED GOLD TREATMENT. Yes. Situations are getting crazy in here.

As always, Audemars Piguet is presenting lots of new items at SIHH 2018. While doing something totally new by having an existing movement is not exactly groundbreaking, it's awesome that the model of camera for example AP really wants to offer this type of awesome movement in various sizes (there's additionally a plain rose gold 37mm version too, in situation you had been wondering). This size the sweet place for a lot of us, even though Frosted may not be your factor, it is all about choices.

I am excited to state this year Audemars Piguet has launched 

Its initial ladies' Royal Oak Concept watch. Since its introduction in 2002, the Royal Oak Concept watches have featured innovative technologies like the Supersonnerie, the Laptimer Michael Schumacher, and also the Acoustic Research. This season, the idea watch out for men may be the Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon GMT as well as for women it's the Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon. The Ladies' Concept watch includes a 38.5mm white-colored gold situation set and among two kinds of diamonds - baguette or brilliant-cut - across the formed lugs and bezel (over 460 diamonds as a whole). The movement is visible with the front or even the situation along with the back featuring white-colored lacquer and satin-brushed bridges. The timepiece is operated by the brand new caliber 2951, which again includes a flying tourbillon at six o'clock.

Within the last few years Audemars Piguet has bending lower on its female-focused releases (see Frosted Gold and Gem Outrage) which year is not different. Launching their first-ever ladies' Concept watch is a big step for your manufacture because it implies that they are trying to create innovative and technologically interesting watches for girls and not ones with diamonds and spikes. This really is definitely not new for Audemars Piguet simply because they will be the primary factor on women's watches. This is actually the initial flying tourbillon created through the manufacture, and to enable them to put it in the women's watch first is rather awesome.

Would I put on this watch? No. Will I love this watch

 In situation you have not observed, women are getting a minute (or as I love to say, "Women are extremely hot at this time."). The feminine empowerment movement isn't lost on big named brands in most industries, and also the watch industry (after many years of creating overpriced quarta movement gemstone bracelets) isn't any different. It screams volumes that Audemars Piguet is constantly on the push the limitations with regards to women's watches and therefore are clearly concentrating on this demographic for future years (because they should). This Royal Oak Concept watch is simply the beginning. Even though it is costly, covered in diamonds, and most likely very hard to put on (stay tuned in for any hands-on) it may only trickle lower into other collections and cost points.
