Motion in Time, Inc. Super Exclusive & Extremely Rare. Audemars Piguet Grand Complication. A True Work of Art! You WILL NOT See Many of These Around! “Literally Speaks for Itself”. Complete with Box & Papers. OR MAKE AN OFFER! Exotic – Rare – And Absolutely Breathtaking! Super Exclusive Concept CW1 Tourbillon from Audemars Piguet. A powerful & striking watch – will definitely draw attention & makes for a great conversation piece. ONE OF THE RAREST!!!! Audemars Piguet Original Production Royal Oak “Concept” Tourbillon CW1 in a Super Rare “Alacrite” Material. Limited to only 150 Pieces The Concept Watch is both radical and comfortably familiar, a combination rarely encountered in cutting edge designs. With its main body fashioned from Alacrite 602, a space age alloy previously used primarily in aerospace and medical applications, and a revolutionary new shock absorption design for the tourbillon cage, as well as the new crown function clutching system, the CW1 is conceived and produced for the physically active high horology aficionado of the 21st century. Alacrite 602 is a new super alloy consisting of 57% Cobalt, 31% chrome, 5% Tungsten, with trace amounts of carbon, silicon, and iron. Extremely difficult to machine, each Concept Watch case requires nearly 60 hours to complete compare to just under 2 hours for each Royal Oak in stainless steel, itself already considered one of the most difficult and time-consuming cases in high horology to produce. The bezel is machined from high grade titanium. For the Royal Oak Concept Watch, Audemars Piguet let loose the technical wizards at Renaud et Papi. The caliber 2896 is not based on any previous movement blank or ebauche, not even as a starting point. Completely and radically new, “from the ground up, ” every major structure, plate, sub-system and assembly is conceived and produced in-house. A fine way to end, once and for all, the over-emphasized and increasingly tiresome debate, is it in-house? All movement structures and supports are machined or formed from high grade titanium, and functions include, starting at 12:00 – Dynamographe – shows instantaneous torque from the mainspring; linear power reserve indicator, calibrated in barrel turns (one barrel turn equals approximately 6 hours of power reserve) sub-second and crown function setting indicator (Remontoir / Neutre / Heures) (French for winding / neutral / time setting in English) Tourbillon, with electro-eroded titanium shock suspension, giving a reported 50g’s! No doubt – One of the most sought after Audemars Piguet watches ever released. The Audemars Piguet brand offers watches of the highest quality matched with incredible style. Owning a watch like this is a privilege afforded to very few collectors, since producing a watch like this requires a master to produce it. This amazing limited edition of 150 examples timepiece from Audemars Piguet is a very lucrative and hard to find timepiece. PLEASE ALSO CHECK OUR OTHER ITEMS..
