Audemars Piguet History

Audemars Piguet was founded in Le Brassus, Switzerland, in the Vallée de Joux, one of the most important regions in Swiss watchmaking. The brand was built on complicated watchmaking, precision, and craftsmanship.

In 1972, Audemars Piguet introduced the Royal Oak, designed by Gérald Genta. At the time, the idea of a luxury stainless steel sport watch with an integrated bracelet and exposed screws was extremely bold. Today, the Royal Oak is one of the most important watches in modern horology.

In 1993, Audemars Piguet introduced the Royal Oak Offshore. Larger, thicker, and more aggressive, the Offshore brought a new level of sport design to AP and became popular with athletes, collectors, and buyers who wanted stronger wrist presence.

Today, Audemars Piguet continues to produce some of the most desirable luxury watches in the world, including Royal Oak, Royal Oak Offshore, Royal Oak Concept, Code 11.59, and complicated high-watchmaking models.

Is Audemars Piguet a Good Investment?

Audemars Piguet watches, especially Royal Oak models, are known for strong collector demand. While no watch purchase is guaranteed to increase in value, AP remains one of the most important names in luxury watch collecting.

Factors that can affect AP value include:

• Reference number

• Collection

• Case size

• Material

• Dial color

• Condition

• Box and papers

• Bracelet condition

• Limited production or discontinued status

• Movement type

• Market demand

Royal Oak models in stainless steel, blue dial configurations, Jumbo Extra-Thin references, openworked models, perpetual calendars, and rare limited editions often attract strong collector interest.

Is Audemars Piguet a Good First Luxury Watch?

Audemars Piguet can be a strong first high-end watch for buyers who want something bold, prestigious, and collectible. However, AP watches are usually more expensive and less understated than many entry-level luxury watches.

AP is a strong choice for buyers who want:

• A luxury sport watch with strong design identity

• A watch that stands apart from Rolex

• High-end Swiss craftsmanship

• Strong wrist presence

• Collector recognition

• A serious long-term timepiece

For many buyers, the Royal Oak is a grail watch. For others, the Royal Oak Offshore is the better choice because it feels sportier and more casual.

Why Buy a Pre-Owned Audemars Piguet?

Buying a pre-owned Audemars Piguet gives customers access to discontinued references, hard-to-find dials, older case sizes, full sets, and collectible configurations that may be difficult to purchase new.

Pre-owned AP watches may include stainless steel Royal Oak models, rose gold Royal Oak Chronographs, Offshore Divers, Offshore Chronographs, openworked models, perpetual calendars, and limited editions.

At ECI Jewelers, every pre-owned Audemars Piguet watch is inspected for authenticity, condition, and quality before being offered for sale.
