Audemars Piguet Perpetual Calendar 5548 Yellow Gold
SOLD
The Inside Story
Rare and important to AP…
The reference 5548 is regarded as the watch that saved Audemars Piguet, during the so-called Quartz Crisis of the early 1970s.
The watch is rare as it is believed that only around 2000 pieces were made. The watch is driven by the JLC Calibre 2120 with a Depraz perpetual calendar module added. Even with the module, the movement is only 3.95mm thick! The movement is housed in a slim and elegant 36mm yellow gold case, that has a double-stepped design with three adjustment buttons.
The white enamel dial is in beautiful original condition and is signed AUDEMARS PIGUET in the lower half. The dial has day, date and month calendars with blued steel hands and a moonphase at six o’clock.
This lovely condition AP will come on the pictured Bulang and Sons strap that is fitted with an original Audemars Piguet yellow gold buckle. The movement has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.

If you are not 100% satisfied, please let us know. We offer a 14 days return policy. Simply return the watch to get a full refund of the original purchase price.
