Code 11.59 By Audemars Piguet Gemset

Audemars Piguet presents two new models Code 11.59 with a diameter of 38 mm, the cases and dials of which are decorated with delicate inlaid precious stones. These new items are made of 18k white or rose gold and feature a dial with 533 round-cut diamonds and colored sapphires (~2.05 carats). Equipped with a triple-firing self-winding 5909 caliber movement, the new items combine technical performance, cutting-edge design and sparkling sophistication.

The dial occupies a central place from the point of view of aesthetics. Made of gold and completely inlaid in gradient shades of blue or pink, it sparkles with every movement of the wrist and offers an exciting play of light. Gemstones are cut in two different sizes (from 0.85 to 0.9 mm for the first and from 0.9 to 1 mm for the second). The master picks gems with the desired color gradient and in sufficient quantity. The task is as meticulous as aligning the stones on the dial to achieve a striking visual effect.

The case harmoniously combines sparkling gold with shimmering diamonds. The aesthetics of the watch are emphasized by the rhodium-plated inner bezel, the white gold hour markers and the corresponding hour and minute hands. The latter are filled with luminescent material for optimal visibility in the dark. Decorated with diamonds and sapphires in gradient shades of pink, the dial reveals endless details at every glance. The pearl grey alligator leather strap complements the elegant watch.

Alternatively, the second model highlights the contrast by combining 18-carat rose gold with 533 diamonds and intense gradient blue sapphires (~2.05 carats). The dark blue inner bezel matches the color of the alligator leather strap, and the hour markers and luminous hands echo the tone of the rose gold case.

The two 38mm novelties feature one of the latest self—winding mechanisms, the 5909 Caliber. First introduced in the Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 collection, this 3.9mm thick movement operates at a frequency of 4 Hz and has a power reserve of 60 hours, making it ideal for a modern lifestyle. The date indicator has been removed to give pride of place to the exquisite gemstone inlay on the dial.

The elegance of the 5909 calibre is expressed in the exquisite Haute Horlogerie finish, including Côtes de Genève, tirés, satin finish, spiral finish and polish, which can be admired through the sapphire crystal back cover, as well as through the 22-carat rose gold rotor, the rhodium shade of which matches the case color for the white gold version.
