Audemars Piguet Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon

Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon, reference 26730TI.OO.1320TI.02, has a titanium case measuring 41 mm across. The dial is sandblasted smoked blue and sits under a sapphire crystal. Inside is the self-winding Calibre 2950, visible through the movement's flying tourbillon construction, which does away with the usual upper bridge. This is the tourbillon's main draw here: hours and minutes are the only other functions on offer, keeping the display uncluttered. The watch is fitted to a titanium bracelet closed by an AP folding clasp, matching the case in both colour and finish. Water resistance stands at 50 metres, modest for the collection but standard for a piece built around this complication.
