Audemars Piguet “Two-Tone” Calatrava

Description

Offered here is an exceptionally rare and beautiful time-only watch from Audemars Piguet.  Likely produced in the 1950-1960s, due to the use of an automatic movement, this watch stands out for its striking two-tone dial; however, the chapter ring and center of the dial match and contrast with the ring surrounding the indices to give it a three-tone appearance.

This Audemars Piguet is in great vintage condition.  The solid gold case has previously been polished, but the lugs are still thick and even, and it does not appear “overpolished”.  The original dial is perfect, with no visible flaws or marks.
