I'm privileged enough to live in Vaud, close enough to Le Brassus and Le Chaux de Fonds that I've cycled through there many times.... And having gone past these legendary buildings, it strikes me to comment on the total lack of ostentation. There's no flashy signs, no massive gates and displays shouting and begging for attention. Even though it's obvious that there's real money there, it's a quiet and reserved type of wealth that more cloying brands always try to display outwardly. I've probably seen that AP workshop twenty times without it really getting into my head that inside are probably millions and millions of swiss francs of the world's greatest watches. This is true brilliance in all its Swiss reservedness and privacy.

Love the AP Brand i just don't like that the actual cost of a watch is so much lower with AP producing 40.000 models a year as a customer the price markup for luxury watches is just ridicoulus. Old brand, best workers, made in Suisse, .... all perfect but it does not justify do sell it so much higher when the actual cost are so much lower! Just bc the market allows it and other competitors do it doesn't mean its ethical 100% Gold behavior. AT THE END of the day the AP owners make Billions WHY bc it's what the market allows them. Nothing to be proud of!

The watches are actually Taiwanese manufactured. The Workshops in Switzerland are just a facade.

Can’t wait for the comments on saying it’s only royal oak nowadays, why is there so much negativity under these Hodinkee videos? This is beautiful and you wouldn’t get to see it otherwise

MrWIWARD tell me about it. If I were told I could only own one watch it would be the 15202st. No doubt about it. Love it to death. Love AP

Just saw this video. These watches are adult toys. Telling the time is not really the reason why these watches exist. We now use cellphones, smartwatches to tell time.

This what separates Audemars Piguet, from the rest of the Watch World! Passion and perfection, truly amazing Haute Horology at the highest possible level! The ones who own a Audemars Piguet, are truly fortunate and blessed!

I just saw this video, and disagree with you. Micro High horology brands like Andreas Strehler, Armin Strom, Czapek, DeBethune, Gronefeld, Grebel Forsey, Gronefeld, FP Journe, Laurent Ferrier ( to name a few ) have equaled, or arguably exceeded AP in exclusivity, craftsmanship, and complexity. History, & marketing is the only thing now that leaves a gap ( shrinking) between the Holy Trinity, and the micro brands. High horology brands have grown thanks to advances in computer software, materials available, & precision machining tools. ( All the high end brands have similarly skilled craftsman to assemble & fine finish the watches )

Just to think a twenty dollar Casio quartz watch from Wal-Mart will run for a minimum of ten years on it's battery and only loss + or- five to ten seconds per month. When these Audemars must been wore to keep main spring wound and losses sixty to two hundred forty seconds per month and some time much more and cost a minimum of twenty two thousands dollars. Which watch could anyone say is the real timepiece!
