Now available, an extraordinary Audemars Piguet Bamboo in yellow gold, featuring what is quite possibly a unique factory configuration: a mother-of-pearl dial framed by a pavé diamond-set inner bezel.

The Bamboo collection is already among Audemars Piguet’s most intriguing designs of the late 20th century, defined by its fluid bracelet and softly sculpted case with “bamboo joint” accents. But this example stands apart entirely. To our knowledge, this is the only Bamboo to have surfaced with a mother-of-pearl dial, a choice that brings a subtle iridescence and warmth rarely seen in the reference. Paired with a diamond-set surround, the watch straddles the line between haute joaillerie and refined watchmaking with complete ease.

Delicate yet bold, unusual yet unmistakably Audemars Piguet, this piece embodies the maison’s ability to innovate in design while working with precious materials at the highest level. For collectors of rare-gem Bamboos, this might be the grail. Unlike many of the Bamboo models produced with quartz movements, this particular example houses a mechanical, hand-wound calibre. The choice of a traditional movement not only adds to its collectability, but also speaks to Audemars Piguet’s commitment to watchmaking artistry even within its jewellery-focused creations. It is this rare marriage of mechanical pedigree and bold design that makes the watch so compelling.

Offered in exceptional overall condition, this is a rare chance to acquire one of Audemars Piguet’s most interesting designs outside of the Royal Oak lineage. The watch is available for viewing in London and purchase worldwide. Please get in touch for further information.
