As part of its 150th anniversary celebrations, Audemars Piguet has introduced a groundbreaking innovation in horology: The Calibre 7138, a next-generation self-winding perpetual calendar movement. This cutting-edge movement redefines user experience by allowing all functions to be adjusted effortlessly through an “all-in-one” crown, making mechanical corrections easier than ever before.
Designed with a focus on ergonomics, the new movement enhances comfort and adaptability to modern lifestyles while maintaining the precision of traditional perpetual calendars that track the celestial movements. This intuitive complication not only revolutionizes functionality but also improves legibility, offering a user-friendly approach to timekeeping.
The Calibre 7138 makes its debut across several stunning timepieces, including the 41 mm Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet in 18-carat white gold, and two Royal Oak models in stainless steel and 18-carat sand gold. Additionally, 3 limited-edition models, 150 pieces each, pay tribute to the brand’s 150 years of craftsmanship, with special design elements that honor its legacy.
With 5 years of meticulous development and five patents protecting this innovation, Audemars Piguet opens the door to new creative possibilities in watchmaking, setting the stage for the future of luxury timepieces.
