ONE OF THE RAREST POCKET WATCHES IN THE WORLD

It is very hard to find that solid gold Audemars Piguet 18ct in that stunning condition, I present to you one very interesting exemplar of a brand Audemars Piguet, one of the biggest makers of the watches in the world, impressive dial, the case is in mirror clean condition, we can date this watch with good precision, watch is made in year 1925, this means that the watch is about 94 years old and it is still in very good working condition.

The case:



Solid gold case (18 Karats) of this watch is in very clean condition, there are no dents or scratches on the case and cover, for sure there are no serious injuries from dropping or impact.

Very tight and pretty covers, like the watch, just coming out from the factory.

The glass is absolutely no scratches on it and it is real glass what it should be.

On the inside of the cover on a gold case (FIRST BIG ONE), there are inscriptions "SWISS HALLMARK FOR 18K GOLD "HEAD OF HELVETIA" "18K" "AP & CO" and serial number.

Inside of the middle cover (dust cover), there are inscriptions "SWISS HALLMARK FOR 18K GOLD "HEAD OF HELVETIA"" "18K" "AP & CO" and serial number.

The crown is gold-tone onion style, very tight good working order, the bow is very tight also perfect condition.

The serial number of the case is: 27607


The movement:



I can safely say is rarely seen as a well-preserved movement.

The movement is completely cleaned and oiled, it works very good and has been tested for a period of time and shows very good results. The movement is composite of 1 main plate and 6 bridges, one bridge which holds balance wheel, a second one which holds mainspring, third, fourth, fifth and sixth they hold gear wheels they all create the movement of the watch.

To clean it every one part was disassembled, cleaned and oiled, then placed back very precisely.

The watch movement runs fast for about 11 - 23 seconds for every 24 hours which is a very good achievement.

For that time a well-working pocket watch gave a difference of 2 - 3 minutes in 24 hours, as watches have been adjusted every day.

The balance running very strong, absolutely perfect condition.

That movement has 19 Jewels, this means that the movement has 19 precious stones (19 rubies), the stones are on the places where it is large friction in order to protect the metal from abrasion.

Inscriptions on the movement are: "19 Jewels" "AUDEMARS PIGUET & CO" "BRASSUS GENEVE”

and serial number "27607”.

It has Arabic numerals, black numbers on a silver background, Original dial has been cleaned.

The dial has some thin scratches, one small dent around 8'clock position.

The dial is in good condition with no hard damages and no visible cracks on it.

The subs-dial has Arabic numerals there are some very small swellings on right-hand side when facing the watch, overall clean condition.

There are no fingerprints on the dial.

Inscription on the dial: AUDEMARS PIGUET & CO BRASSUS GENEVE
