Audemars Piguet Tourbillon in White Gold – Full Set – 25956BC

The Audemars Piguet 25956BC Tourbillon in white gold stands as a quietly commanding piece in the upper echelon of vintage haute horology. Offered here as a full set, this reference is a discreetly rare find—particularly appealing to collectors who appreciate the convergence of mechanical mastery and minimalist design. The white gold case frames a beautifully restrained dial, allowing the exposed tourbillon to take center stage without shouting for attention. Produced during a period when AP was pushing boundaries in both form and function, the 25956BC reflects a purposeful elegance seldom matched in modern offerings. For the seasoned enthusiast, its presence in a collection signals connoisseurship rather than showmanship. With provenance intact and condition aligning with collector-grade expectations, we believe this example offers not only investment value but also enduring horological significance.

Description

General information:
Accompanied by its (exceptional walnut wooden) box and documentation, this partially skeletonized Audemars Piguet showcases an elegant Arabic-hour dial with a flowing guilloché pattern. A subtly off-centered seconds hand floating above the captivating tourbillon mechanism.
Housed in a stepped rectangular case crafted from 18-carat white gold, the watch offers substantial wrist presence—both in dimensions and in weight (118 grams). Note the small ding near the bottom edge of the brushed whit gold side in the 11th picture in this listing.

At its heart beats the tourbillon Caliber 2881, featuring a 70-hour power reserve, a high-frequency rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour, and 23 jewels.
The Cal. 2881 is performing exceptionally well, running at just -1 second per day with an impressive amplitude of 301 degrees.
