High-Tech Case: Ceramic Titanium
The sculpted 43 mm black ceramic case is matched with a ceramic bezel, push-pieces, and screw-locked crown. Titanium is used for crown guards, pushers, and studs—combining lightweight strength with a stealthy aesthetic. At ~15.5 mm thick, this is a commanding presence built for endurance. Water-resistant to 100 m, it is both sporty and refined.
Skeletonized Dial with Burgundy Details
Inside the glare-proof sapphire crystal lies a skeletonized black dial, fully revealing the architecture of the AP Caliber 2967. Black titanium dial bridges are accentuated with polished burgundy lacquered inserts, echoing the bezel and providing vibrant contrast. Applied white gold hands with luminescent coating ensure visibility against the open-worked backdrop.
Caliber 2967: Flying Tourbillon Flyback Chronograph
At the heart of this powerhouse is Caliber 2967, a self-winding movement with a flying tourbillon, flyback chronograph function, hours and minutes display. Comprising 526 parts and 40 jewels, the movement operates at 3 Hz (21,600 vph), offering a 65-hour power reserve.
Rubber Strap Interchangeability
This reference comes with a burgundy rubber strap, matching the dial accents for styling versatility secured by a titanium three-blade folding clasp. AP’s patented strap interchange system allows quick swapping. An additional black rubber strap is included.
