Audemars Piguet Watches: The Millenary Collection by ajaxblogger

I’ve always wanted more than just a pretty face, and my timepieces are no exception. In fact, who needs pretty? I prefer something modern, playful, and daring—like the Men’s Millenary collection from Audemars Piguet watches.

If Tim Burton designed a watch, it would probably look like this, beginning with its three oblong dials, both bold and asymmetrical. The numeric models feature a shocking combination of numbers and Roman numerals, each arranged in disproportionate sizes and unusual angles for a face that’s truly unique.

These watches come in a variety of styles, featuring white and rose gold cases and brown and black leather crocodile straps—one of the brown-strapped models is even available with sky-blue stitching.

And then there’s the Pianoforte, featuring a piano-patterned outer dial in mother of pearl, complemented by an exclusively white gold case and black crocodile strap.

The upper-tier Pianoforte, a truly exemplary design, features a dial and bezel both set with diamonds. As both a music performer and patron, this timepiece was an obvious must for my collection.

So again, who needs pretty? Audemars Piguet watches aren’t pretty—they’re art.

The watch you’re expected to wear has a slender leather wristband, securing one of those minimalist faces designed for a woman who doesn’t really need to know what time it is – at least not down to the subseconds. You’re not one of those women.

You want the functionality of a men’s wristwatch and the luxury of timeless piece of jewelry, crafted in a package as dynamic as your personality. You want the Ladies Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph collection by Audemars Piguet, a designer known for creating refined sports watches for women.

We begin with an elegant bezel set in diamonds, housed in a case of rose gold or stainless steel. Then the surprise – a durable rubber strap, providing a unique intersection of materials that showcases both style and strength, even whimsy.

Pair a white strap and gold case to achieve a clean, sophisticated color profile, or match stainless steel with deep purple for something more exciting. Either way, a wristwatch from Audemars Piguet’ Ladies Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph collection is chic and unexpected.

So go ahead, surprise them.
