Description
Here is a very rare, ultra-thin and wide Audemars Piguet Geneve from the 1960s. The engine-turned lifesaver-style 1960s 18k solid-gold case measures 35mm across and only 4.5mm thin. This is one thin and sleek watch! The gold case displays very fine condition overall with no dings or scratches. Look at the fabulous and original dial, having quadrant cross-sections and gold, reflective minute track with a gold reflective arrow marker at 6:00 and dot at 12:00. The needle-thin hands extend the look of sleekness throughout the dial. The band affixes inside the case and is held with screws internally and was just replaced with a high-quality, very thin Omega lizard version. The incredibly thin caliber 2003 movement measures only 1.64mm thin. It was developed in 1955 and set the record for being the thinnest movement produced by any watch company. I have never owned this model until now, and believe it is quite rare.
