About This Antiquarian
Book |
This marvelously illustrated LONG OUT OF PRINT Antiquarian auction catalogue lists and describes 35 Lots, ALL of which are amply illustrated illustrated in fabulous colour, of an unbelievably luxurious collection of Audemars Piguet Wrist Watches ! "Audemars Piguet inaugurated the Time To Give Foundation in the year of our 125th Anniversary as a way of saying 'Thank You' to all of our friends and supporters throughout our history. As a company, we feel grateful for our years of success and recognition, and we feel compelled to give back to worthy organizations that help others. "We are especially honored to have the very first function of the 'Time To Give' Foundation raise money for Arnold Schwarzenegger's Inner-City Games Foundation and The Muhammad Ali Center." Celebrities include --
WOWSERS! Not only do we find an exceptional array of styles and exclusive individual formats produced by this world-renouned Manufacture d'Horlogerie Compliquee et en Tous Genres, but each watch is shown on the right-facing page in two views - the watch itself, and where it is autographed by the celebrity! On the left-facing page is a fabulous pic of each corresponding celebrity, and a personal message from them accompanied by their signature.
Audemars Piguet collections include -- various versions of -- Royal Oak, Promesse, Millenary, Royal Oak Offshore, Canape, Edward Piguet, Charleston, Carnegie, and Jules Audemars. I have always been fascinated with timepieces since I was a teenager, perhaps due to their seeming complexity and precision- I dislike wearing a battery-operated wristwatch quite simply because I find it a chore replacing the battery -- IF I could find a replacement; I prefer a self-wind! This reference source is a must have for anyone interested in Audemars Piguet watches, and will help complete their personal computer interactive relational database of these marvels of technology - and pure unadulterated luxury! The cover is an extra heavy embossed white stock, which could not have been scanned to be able to see anything, so the above scan is of the printed part of the first page. Index [of celebrities]. Lavishly illustrated ! Antiquarian Book in EXCELLENT+ Condition!! Return to |
