The present lot is an early example of a skeletonized wristwatch by Audemars Piguet from the first half of the 20th century. It is one of approximately 10 watches made in a rectangular case. Each piece was unique and the skeletonized design was left up to each horologer squeletteur to create using his own imagination.
