AllThingsWatches provides an exclusive look into the Audemars Piguet Ambassadors' Cup 2012, held at the Liberty National Golf Course. This post captures the essence of the event, featuring top golfers and AP ambassadors, and offers a glimpse into the luxury brand's community engagement and the watches worn by its notable figures.

I was honored this year with an invite to the Audemars Piguet 2012 Ambassador's Cup.

It started with an intimate dinner setting at the club house. I have captured pictures with my phone and camera. Some are good, others not. smile Ginza was out for Dinner.

The event was held at the Liberty National Golf Course in New Jersey the next day. Four of the top golfers in the world were leading the foursomes.

They also happen to all be Audemars Piguet Ambassador's. smile Graeme McDowell, Rory McIlroy, Ian Poulter and Lee Westwood.

Rory McIlroy was wearing the Rose Gold Royal Oak Offshore Grand Prix Limited Edition. Graeme McDowell was wearing the 44mm Rose Gold Royal Oak Offshore. Ian Poulter was wearing the Royal Oak Offshore Limited Edition Legacy on an alligator strap which dressed it up and looked amazing. Lee Westwood was wearing the Royal Oak Tourbillon Chronograph.

I had a chance to talk to our Captain (Ian Poulter) a little bit about Audemars Piguet. He said he has always loved the brand even before becoming an ambassador. He owns 5 AP's currently and has others on order. Besides being great golfers and ambassadors of the brand they are all VERY passionate about the watches we all love to wear - Audemars Piguet.

My Golf Watch. Audemars Piguet 25770ST

As with any AP event this was another amazing one. It was an honor to play with my team mates - Michael, Jay and David. Also an honor to meet these 4 ambassadors of the brand. Truly nice guys and AP made a great choice.

Thanks to Audemars Piguet North America and especially Jasmine, Jonny, Manuela, Yvette and Christina!

The best course I've played is the PGA and the Kings at Gleneagles. No golf celebrities present though, and they all seem to wear crap watches in Scotland.

I don't recall him drilling a wedge 15' past the cup and pulling it back on a rope?? LOL, he did hit the one on 18 that yielded our last birdie :-) Henry, it was an absolute pleasure to meet you and play together. I look forward to the next time.
