Audemars Piguet Flying Tourbillon

Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon, reference 26227BC.ZZ.D011CR.01, is a women's model in 18-carat white gold measuring 38.5 mm across and 11.4 mm thick. The manual-winding calibre 2951 drives the watch and is set with diamonds, visible through the openworked dial beneath a sapphire crystal. The flying tourbillon sits exposed at the front of the dial, and a power reserve display shares the skeletonised layout. The watch is fitted on a hand-stitched white alligator strap. Its 18-carat white gold folding clasp is itself set with brilliant-cut diamonds. Water resistance is rated to 20 metres, modest but typical of a piece built around mechanics rather than depth.
