1. AUDEMARS PIGUET ROYAL OAK 33MM QUARTZ IN 18-CARAT PINK GOLD CASE AND DIAMOND-SET BEZEL audemars Piguet is the oldest fine watchmaking manufacturer still in the hands of its founding families. Since 1875, the company has written some of the finest chapters in the history of haute horlogerie, including a number of world firsts. Each and every audemars Piguet timepiece is crafted with passion, exclusivity, respect and inspiration, all perfectly embody the brand s philosophy, To break the rules, you must first master them. This dainty royal Oak 33 mm-diameter model is not an exception, as it is produced with the same degree of dedication and mastery in the le Brassus manufacture. The exquisite wristwatch is especially donated by The Countess of Wessex to support the charity works of the 100 Women in Hedge Funds. accentuated by a bezel set with 40 brilliant-cut diamonds, this 18-carat pink gold model represents a return to the roots and successfully unites all the design codes that forged the success of the world s first prestige sports watch, the royal Oak. The subtle interplay of alternating satin-brushed and polished surfaces characterising the first royal Oak watches highlights the clear-cut lines of this 33 mm model; while the eight hexagonal screws on the octagonal bezel are in white gold, just as they were on the original watch in 1972. also typical of this collection, the silver-toned dial of this royal Oak bears a grande Tapisserie pattern that now becomes a signature for all royal Oak Selfwinding and Quartz models. The royal Oak houses quartz Calibre 2713, driving hour and minute hands as well as a window-type date display. Donated by: audemars Piguet www.audemarspiguet.com 3
