Continuing its quest for innovative and new materials, Swiss luxury watchmaker Audemars Piguet<\/a><\/strong> unveils its latest inthe Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked<\/strong>, its first-ever timepiece made from \u201csand gold,\u201d an in-house created and produced 18-carat gold alloy that offers vibrant light reflections.

The 41mm sand gold case which measures only 10.6mm in height, and bracelet are finished with the manufacture\u2019s<\/em> trademark alternation of satin brushing and polished chamfers. The large mirror-polished bevels of the octagonal bezel and the chamfers adorning every link and stud of the tapering bracelet further accentuate the play of light.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

To enhance the new gold case and bracelet, Audemars Piguet created a corresponding sand-gold-toned shade to decorate the open-worked bridges and mainplate of Caliber 2972, whose layered architecture is prominently displayed on both sides of the watch. <\/p>\n

This new electroplated color subtly contrasts with the rhodium-toned components of the movement\u2019s internal mechanisms, further highlight the 3D effect of the skeletonized movement that was first released in 2022 to commemorate the Royal Oak\u2019s 50th<\/sup> anniversary. This state-of-the art manufacture self-winding caliber is equipped with a flying tourbillon and offers a power reserve of 65 hours.  <\/p>\n

The geometrical openworked bridges and mainplate have been decorated with horizontal and vertical hand-finishing, accentuating depth and play of light. In addition, the other movement components present refined Haute Horlogerie<\/em> decorations including satin, circular and sunray brushing, snailing, as well as polished chamfers. The polished V-angles that can be admired on both sides of the watch reflect the meticulous craftsmanship. <\/p>\n
