Review: Audemars Piguet – Millenary Tourbillon

Alvin Wong 26 November 2015

The Millenary’s partially open-worked dial, which shows the escapement peeking out from underneath the hour and minute display, immediately endows the watch with technical weight.

Here, the brand dials up the effect not only with a complication – the entire escapement is seen rotating in a tourbillon carriage – but also with an unbridled shower of diamonds on the case and movement. This range of bejewelled Millenary Tourbillons come under the banner of ‘exceptional creations’, and is a delight for Audemars Piguet fans who desire iconic wrist statements that aren’t part of the Royal Oak range.  

Price: S$802,700 (incld GST)

He may have scoured the Basel and Geneva watch fairs for the past 15 years, and played an instrumental role to the growth of Singapore's pioneering horological and men's lifestyle publications, but the intrepid scribe seeks to learn something new with each story he writes.
