Famous for pioneering avant-garde complicated watches, Audemars Piguet is best known for its Royal Oak sports watch. As one of the most accomplished leaders in the Swiss watch industry, the company's landmark achievements include astronomical complications, ultra-thin movements, skeletonization, and chiming timepieces. Audemars Piguet is the last independent Swiss watch brand that’s still run by the families who founded it more than 140 years ago.
