The Audemars Piguet Millenary “Onyx Diamond” Ladies' Skeleton is an extraordinary display of high jewelry craftsmanship and mechanical artistry, embodying the Maison’s pursuit of technical brilliance and aesthetic excellence. This masterpiece, housed in a 39.5mm 18kt white gold case, is nothing short of mesmerizing—individually hand-set with 438 brilliant-cut diamonds across the case, bezel, and lugs, creating a radiant shimmer from every angle. Each diamond is meticulously placed to mirror the watch’s elegant elliptical architecture, resulting in a seamless fusion of haute horlogerie and haute joaillerie.
The dial is a work of sculptural beauty, featuring a stunning contrast of jet-black onyx and white gold, masterfully arranged in a zebra-like geometric motif. 140 brilliant-cut diamonds are intricately set into this lattice, illuminating the graphic design with unparalleled fire. The off-centered disc, also crafted from black onyx, houses graceful pink gold hands that elegantly track the time. This dial is not simply ornamental—it is a testament to the level of collaboration between Audemars Piguet’s gem-setting artisans and mechanical engineers. The detail even extends to the small seconds sub-dial, subtly nestled into the left side of the dial, adding dimensional intrigue and balance to the composition.
The brilliance of this piece extends far beyond its surface. At the heart of the watch beats the Audemars Piguet Calibre 5205, a tailor-made, manually wound movement composed of 344 parts and 19 jewels. The movement is not only technically refined but also aesthetically synchronized with the rest of the timepiece. The mainplate and balance bridge are inlaid with matching black onyx inserts, harmonizing beautifully with the motif of the dial—a rare and highly technical feat requiring extreme precision. The exhibition sapphire case back offers a breathtaking view into this architectural marvel, revealing the hand-decorated bridges and fine watchmaking techniques that define Audemars Piguet’s legacy.
Adding an additional touch of refinement, the white gold crown is adorned with a polished onyx cabochon, echoing the dark glamour of the dial. The timepiece is paired with a large square scale black alligator strap that complements the monochromatic theme, secured by an 18kt white gold pin buckle.
What sets this timepiece apart is not only its rarity and complexity, but the synergy between decorative art and technical performance. Achieving such a perfectly integrated gem-set skeleton watch, where even the movement becomes a canvas for design, is something only a true grande maison like Audemars Piguet can master. The Millenary “Onyx Diamond” is a radiant expression of luxury and craftsmanship—a poetic balance of sparkle and substance that makes it one of the most coveted ladies’ complications ever produced. A true jewel of timekeeping art.
