In the mid-1990s, amidst a pop-culture backdrop of flannel shirts and grunge rock, a timepiece emerged that embodied opulence and elegance: this Audemars Piguet, numbered C71634.
 
The piece was crafted by the visionary Emmanuel Gueit, son of the esteemed Jean Claude Gueit. The younger Gueit worked alongside another fabled watch designer, Jacqueline Dimier—and together their creativity flourished.
 
Behind its dazzling dial, the manually wound calibre 003 performs its silent marvels. Unveiled in 1952, this movement maintained its status as the globe’s thinnest self-winding mechanism for half a century. Crafted by Maurice Audemars at LeCoultre & Cie (later Jaeger-LeCoultre) under reference 803, its legacy stands unrivalled.
 
Join us this week, 9 and 10 April, at La Corne à Vin, Rue de Lausanne 47b in Geneva. Exhibition previews in the cave are free and open to the public from 4 to 8PM. Come see what has the whole town buzzing, then register to bid for the April 11 auction at the link in bio.
