Outstanding pieces!
I love the direction AP is going - bringing back artisanal and traditional watchmaking into the modern world. Personally like the Nomade quite a bit - and if they had added an alarm function I would be all over it!
This and the new Ultracomplication, QP, Neo Frame, and RD5 releases hopefully continues to reinforce APs excellence beyond people's expectations!
Thanks for sharing,
Peter
Audemars Piguet's new “Établisseurs” collection
The practice of watchmaking , known as “ établissage ,” is a method that spread from the 18th century onwards in the Jura region, particularly in the Neuchâtel mountains. It involves dividing the manufacturing work into small , specialised , and independe...
I like the desk watch and the shaped movement in the last timepiece.
And, of course, the craftsmanship behind these creations is extraordinary even if they are beyond a dream for mere mortals to ever acquire. Thanks for posting Emmanuel. M4
I also like the desk/pocket watch very much: I wouldn't mind owning one, really...
Thanks for looking. Best, Emmanuel
Incredibly creative pieces by AP
Who says they only make Royal Oaks? Thanks, Emmanuel!
A/ ÉTABLISSEURS NOMADE Ref. 75200TI.OO.01- love this one
could this be the modern version of the movado ermeto-hermetic from 1926 which makes it 100years old !! funny that. i would suggest that no skeletonising is done with a hack saw even junior. try a fret or piercing saw the last photo advertisement is of 't...
The Movado is close, but it doesn't transform into a table clock, does it?
The hacksaw is mentioned by AP... I don't know anything more (see images below)... And thanks for Twiggy: I wondered who she was (I thought for a minute it was French actress Jeanne Moreau). Best, Emmanuel ...

Thank you, Peter. I like the Nomad a lot too.
An alarm would be welcome indeed. And I'm glad to see AP moving in a direction I like. Resta's plans sing to me more than Bennahmias'. Just my personal taste of course. Best, Emmanuel
lost in translation
piercing saw blades the movado ermeto as a table/bebside clock ...
Translation error indeed, I guess.
In French the words used are "scie traditionnelle" (traditional saw). Would "coping saw" or "scroll saw" be better? The stand of the Movado is a nice feature.
'piercing saw'-'scie a chantourner' (jig saw would be nearer) used by watch makers and jewellers-for soft metals gold silver platinum brass etc
as you can see the blades-(which cut on the down stroke ) are very small and break easily hack saws cut on the forward stroke
