Created as the modern face of Audemars Piguet, the Code 11.59 collection was designed to push beyond the Royal Oak and show the brand’s vision for contemporary watchmaking. This chronograph in white gold with its smoked blue dial highlights the line’s distinctive case architecture, round bezel, round mid-case, and open lugs capped by a double-curved crystal. Among AP watches, it stands apart for being the first to house the fully integrated in-house flyback chronograph movement.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Featured a smoked blue lacquered dial shifts from deep navy at the edges to a brighter blue at the center, accented by applied white-gold markers and chronograph subdials. Showcases a white-gold case is built in layers, with a round bezel and caseback enclosing a rounded mid-case and open lugs that add architectural detail.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and chronograph. The chronograph scale sits on the inner bezel, letting you measure average speed based on travel time. The upper pusher starts and stops the chronograph, while the lower pusher resets it to zero. It also features luminous hands and markers, making it easy to read the time in dim or low-light environments.

Comes as a full set, double-boxed, including a watch pillow, warranty card, warranty booklet, and manual.

Few timepieces so seamlessly blend avant-garde design with traditional craftsmanship, offering a bold reinterpretation of what a modern Swiss chronograph can be. Reserved for those who appreciate depth beyond the dial, it’s a statement of design leadership rather than design repetition.
