Jules Audemars Minute Repeater Jumping Hours Platinum / White

In Context

At 43 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 12 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 20 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 72 hours of reserve puts it well past a weekend — several days off the wrist and it is still going. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.

26151PT.OO.D028CR.01 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a white gloss dial with a platinum case. Beyond the time it carries a minute repeater.

Hand-wound movement with minute repeater and jumping hour display. Total of 420 parts including 35 jewels.
