Audemars Piguet

A brief history of Audemars Piguet

Audemars Piguet began in 1875 in Le Brassus, in Switzerland’s Vallée de Joux, through the work of Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet. Its origins are closely linked to the region’s network of specialist watchmaking crafts. That setting remains central to the brand’s account of its heritage and the development of its watches.

For pre-owned buyers, the history is an invitation to look closely at design and construction rather than relying on a familiar brand name. Compare the exact reference, dimensions and movement, then assess bracelet or strap fit and documented condition. Different generations deserve individual consideration, and known service work or replacement components should be understood before choosing a watch.
