| Audemars Piguet was formed in 1881 in Vallee de Joux, Switzerland. Both Jules-louis Audemars and Edward-Auguste Piguet, the two founding members, were expert watchmakers, having trained as finishers, and rapidly became famous for the complication pocket watches which they so innovatively produced. Their inventions in complications include: striking mechanisms, perpetual calendar, chronograph, phases of the moon, two time-zones, as well as thermometer, altimeter and compass. Since then the tradition has continued in high quality movements, and remains to this day one of the finest watch houses. |
