Audemars Piguet History - Still Made by Hand Today

Audemars Piguet is considered by most one of the big three of the finest watches in the world. The company started when two young watch makers, Jules Audemars and Edward–August Piguet, joined forces in 1875. The official founding of the company did not take place until 1889 but the two were focused the entire time on producing high quality and precise watches.

The company produced all the parts and assembled the watches in their workshop in Geneva. Today, the watches are still put together by hand to ensure the highest quality of the watch collections and to bring forth the traditions they were built on. After the two founders died, the company still flourished with success. They began producing the thinnest watches with minute repeater and created the thinnest pocket watch the world had ever seen in 1925.

One of their famous watch collections before the 1900´s was the Grande Complication, which is still manufactured today. Audemars Piguet´s signature model was produced in 1972 by the name of Royal Oak. The watch is octagonal shaped and found quite appealing to the eye. This watch collection also has an underwater model that is just as impressive.

A museum opened honoring the watch company and the original two founders in the 1990´s. The brand name Audemars Piguet is one that will continue to prosper due to their unique efforts to keep watch making the precise hand-made skill it began as.
