New additions to the Millenary collection
Comfortable metal bracelet and opal face
In November 2017, Audemars Piguet unveiled new additions to its Millenary collection to coincide with the Dubai Watch Week. These models complement the white gold and pink gold case models introduced in 2015 with bracelets, and also feature the collection's first-ever opal dials.

New releases that express the wearer's individuality and refresh their style
Audemars Piguet's new "Millenary" models feature precious versions combining white gold and pink gold cases, introduced in 2015, with matching gold bracelets, alongside a model with an opal dial, a first for the Millenary collection, bringing the total to three distinct models.
The former two models are set with diamonds and feature cabochon-set crowns, exuding an elegant presence. The bracelets, finished in a Polish style,
are meticulously hand-finished, with wires regularly wound around the axis, alternating left and right.
This metal bracelet redefines the style, imbuing it with a vintage flair befitting the oval case and Roman numerals on the dial. With links adjustable in 5mm increments, it offers a supple fit for every woman.
Additionally, the bezel, inner bezel, upper lugs, and the case sides at 9 and 3 o'clock are adorned with a frosted finish. This frosted gold technique, previously exclusive to Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak, is achieved using a pneumatic tool with a diamond tip vibrating at 200Hz (12,000 times/minute) to create a delicate shimmer on the surface, akin to diamond dust.
Meanwhile, the addition of an opal dial, a first for the Millenary, further enriches the collection. This collection now not only responds to evolving lifestyles but also captures the individuality of the women who wear it, transforming their style.
