This NEW $375k Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 Starwheel SG60 "Piece Unique" Is Actually A Masterpiece !

Описание: Continuing with its longstanding support for charities in Singapore, one of its key markets globally, Audemars Piguet has just revealed the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Starwheel SG60, a unique piece created expressly to raise funds for the National Museum of Singapore (NMS).

Like the standard Starwheel, this SG60 edition features the Code 11.59’s complex multi-part case. Measuring 41mm in diameter and 10.7mm in thickness, it combines a white gold bezel, lugs, and caseback with a central case middle crafted from black ceramic. The watch is fitted with a domed sapphire crystal on the dial side and a sapphire caseback, and offers a water resistance of 30 meters.

The elements specific to the occasion are subtle, like the red “60” on the minute scale, but this is easily distinct from the regular production equivalent. I certainly think it is more appealing. That said, I would have preferred more extensive changes to the dial colour, especially since the black hour discs are now at odds with the rest of the dial that is mostly in red and silver.

At the heart of the design is a dial unlike any other in the Starwheel family. A deep red lacquer base with a sparkling finish evokes the vibrant red of Singapore’s national flag, while silver chapter rings replace the usual black to better harmonize with the celebratory color palette. The signature wandering hours complication remains, with three black rotating satellite discs gliding across a curved minute track.

Powering the watch is the self-winding Calibre 4310, a modified version of Calibre 4309 equipped with a wandering hours module. Operating at 28,800 vph (4 Hz), it delivers a 70-hour power reserve thanks to its twin mainspring barrels. The movement also features a skeletonised 22k pink gold rotor engraved with an “SG60” motif.

The SG60 edition comes on a black rubber-coated strap with a white gold pin buckle. Audemars Piguet also includes a second strap in denim-effect calfskin with red stitching.

The estimate for the unique Code 11.59 Starwheel was the local retail price of 92,110 Singapore dollars, including taxes, which is equivalent to US$71,500.

However, obviously throwing the expectations out of the park, this once-in-a-lifetime creation was sold for almost 5 times the anticipated price for 480,000 Singapore dollars, equivalent to US$375,000.
