Classique

A rare watch basking in the glory of sophisticated and refined 1960s horological design, the Audemars Piguet ref. 5281 is revered for its robust construction and elegant aesthetic. While it would easily slot into AP’s lineup today, the ref. 5281 was unusual in the 1960s due to its screw-down waterproof caseback and unusually large 36mm stainless steel case. With its satin-brushed silver dial and understated symmetrical design, the ref. 5281’s date aperture punctuates the dial and brings another useful piece of functionality to the watch that can only be appreciated. Powered by the legendary AP cal. 2072 – itself based on a Jaeger LeCoultre ebauche used by Vacheron Constantin and Patek Philippe
