34 mm Pink-Gold Case Diamond Bezel
Constructed entirely from 18‑carat pink gold, the octagonal case and integrated bracelet exhibit AP’s distinctive satin-brushed and polished finishes. Measuring a slender 8.8 mm in thickness and water-resistant to 50 m, the watch is framed by a bezel set with 40 brilliant-cut diamonds (~0.71 ct), infusing the design with understated sparkle.
Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50 “Grande Tapisserie” Dial
At the center lies a captivating “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” dial decorated with the iconic “Grande Tapisserie” guilloché pattern. This deep blue hue, paired with pink-gold applied hour markers and luminescent Royal Oak hands, offers exquisite contrast and superb legibility. The discreet date aperture at 3 o’clock blends seamlessly into the textured canvas.
In-House Calibre 5800
Inside powers the in-house Calibre 5800, built on the proven Vaucher VMF 3000 platform. This ultra-slim (4 mm) automatic movement beats at a robust 4 Hz, offers a 50-hour power reserve, and drives hours, minutes, central seconds, and date functions. The exhibition sapphire caseback showcases the refined decoration of its 186 components, including Côtes de Genève and a 22 k rose-gold rotor.
18-Karat Pink-Gold Integrated Bracelet
Completing the design is a fully brushed and polished pink-gold bracelet, secured with AP’s folding clasp. The seamless integration with the case ensures both aesthetic continuity and ergonomic comfort, while the use of precious metal ensures durability and wearability in everyday scenarios.
