Founded in 1875 by Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet in Le Brassus, Audemars Piguet stands among the world’s last independent, family-owned haute horlogerie houses. The brand made history with the 1972 launch of the Royal Oak, a pioneering luxury steel sports watch. Today, it continues to push creative and technical boundaries by crafting sophisticated complications and embracing avant-garde designs that honor its rich Swiss heritage.
