A one-minute primer to the Jules Audemars Tourbillon Chronograph.

Another superb tribute to Audemars Piguet’s co-founder, here’s a timepiece that we think its namesake himself would be proud to strap on. Previously available only in white gold, it looks even better with an 18K pink gold case that emanates a refined vintage vibe when paired with the brown alligator leather strap. Its openworked manual-winding movement remains a highlight as it is meticulously skeletonised to showcase its inner workings and hand-finishing. Providing additional visual interest, the watch’s tourbillon completes one revolution every 60 seconds to counter the effects of gravity on its accuracy.
