Edward Piguet Tourbillon in Platinum - with a rare and exceptional rutilated dial.
This is a delicate, rare and exceptional platinum and rutilated Quartz rectangular skeletonized Tourbillon wristwatch.
The consummate craftsmanship employed in the cutting and shaping of the mineral crystal contributes to the exclusivity and innate value of the Audemars Piguet Rutilated Crystal Inline Tourbillon.
As is known to many watch connoisseurs that traditional machining techniques would smash the crystal and make the blank useless if they are utilized in cutting and forming the raw crystal blank.
Audemars Piguet worked with experts at Renaud and Papi to use abrasive liquid suspension on mineral crystal.
It takes as long as an hour to only abrade 1mm but it yields extraordinary accuracy, reaching 1/100ths of a millimeter.
