AP John Shaeffer Minute Repeater
By: M4 : December 9th, 2025-11:51
I saw this on A Collected Man. One of six made in platinum. It's small (33.5 mm diameter) but lovely. Movement is by Renaud & Papi.
I like it, how about you? Thanks for looking.

Personally

The John Schaeffer range for me are the most attractive watches ever produced by Audemars Piguet. I wish they brought them back and yes, in the same size!

Very nice, if too small for me. But for any minute repeater, the proof is in the hearing.

I love it, except for the fact that the hour aperture being located at 12 o'clock
By: quattro : December 9th, 2025-13:42
it is "hidden" by the minutes hand when the hour jumps.
But apart from this point, it's wonderful.
Best, Emmanuel

I hadn't thought of that point. You are right, obscuring the hour change isn't ideal..

The Patek Philippe reference 3969 has a similar issue, although much less pronounced.
By: quattro : December 9th, 2025-20:13
And it was completely corrected with the reference 5275P: shorter hand which doesn't overlap the hour window.

You and me brother! Even with amplification (aka, hearing aids) I wonder whether I could hear the repeater.

I wish they would put the writing on the movement & case the same way up
By: cazalea : December 9th, 2025-16:49
I know I can turn the watch around but so can they... you know for the price of any repeater putting Repetition Minutes the other way round is zip

I keep saying a John Shaeffer is perfect for a "ReMaster" model

Can you imagine a minute repeater in 33.5mm in today's world? Not happening..
Thanks for sharing!

I sure wish AP would go back to producing shaped watches - I miss the Tradition and Eduard Piguet collections. ;-(
