Anticipation builds for Audemars Piguet s anniversary release. Community debates AP s strategy, limited editions, and market comparisons to Patek Philippe.

HSTE's post, featuring a captivating image, sparks anticipation and speculation within the Audemars Piguet community regarding an upcoming release. The discussion quickly turns to the brand's strategy for its significant anniversary, drawing comparisons to other luxury watch market events.

Key Points from the Discussion

Audemars Piguet is taking a significant gamble by creating obvious comparisons with the Tiffany 5711 release for their anniversary pieces, indicating confidence in their limited editions and Phillips auction.
There is a sentiment of fatigue regarding special auction pieces and limited editions that are inaccessible to most collectors, with a humorous suggestion for a non-limited version that no one can buy.
The upcoming release is speculated to be a 50-piece limited edition of a new ultra-thin model, with one piece destined for auction, alongside a 39mm ultra-thin Tourbillon, with an announcement expected on January 26th.
The limited anniversary pieces are likely already allocated to existing owners of other limited editions, such as celebrities.
The brand's approach to exclusivity is seen as following the 'Patek way' rather than the 'Rolex way' in terms of market strategy.
