The story behind this Audemars Piguet Millenary
The Millenary collection was launched in 1995 to break free from the traditional conventions of the round watch. In designing its lines, the Maison drew inspiration from the architecture of the Colosseum in Rome. The horizontally elongated elliptical shape offers a three-dimensional display. This model, reference 15320BC.OO.D028CR.01, exemplifies this design with an off-centre display that challenges conventional visual expectations. This approach creates an asymmetrical dynamic across the different levels of the silver-coloured dial. The aesthetic blends with the watchmaking mechanics to offer a unique timepiece within the brand’s collections.
Case, movement and strap of this Millenary
The 45 mm by 40 mm white gold case features a combination of brushed finishes on the sides and a polished bezel. The dial is divided into several textured zones, including a central area featuring fine guilloché work. The hours are displayed using blue Roman and Arabic numerals, overlaid by sword-shaped hands fitted with luminescent material. A date window is situated on the right-hand side. The watch is powered by the calibre 3120, a self-winding mechanical movement comprising 280 components. It offers a power reserve of 60 hours at a frequency of 3 Hz. The sapphire crystal case back reveals a solid gold oscillating weight with raised engravings. The watch is worn on a blue alligator leather strap fastened with a white gold folding clasp. It is water-resistant to 20 metres.
Why this Audemars Piguet watch
The Millenary collection occupies a distinct place in the Audemars Piguet archives. Less prominent than the octagonal models, it is aimed at watch enthusiasts seeking a different geometric design. This white gold version with blue details offers a striking contrast. This model highlights an interest in timepieces with a strong architectural identity, combined with a in-house movement. On the pre-owned market, this model stands out for the balance between the complexity of its case and its cool colour palette.
