Audemars Piguet at Watches & Wonders 2026

From April 14 to 20, the annual Watches & Wonders watch salon is held in Geneva. Among the most unusual novelties of the exhibition are a series of models presented by Audemars Piguet. We have already seen some of these novelties at the beginning of the year. In this review, we will talk about 3 unique models from the Établisseurs series.

The watch features a yellow gold case created by independent designer Xavier J. Perrenoud. The bracelet, developed by Geneva jeweler Nadja Morgenthaler, consists of gold links in the shape of pebbles. The links vary in size and are connected by tiny hinges. Each is inlaid with turquoise or tiger's eye.

The model is powered by caliber 3098, in which Audemars Piguet has revived the brand's first in-house caliber. The watch will be available in five versions with different stone combinations. The annual production of this novelty will be limited to a few pieces.

When closed, this watch resembles a beetle. However, once the mechanism developed by Giulio Papi is activated, the watch transforms into a luxurious peacock. The bird's head rises, revealing its plumage, and the wings spread to uncover the jumping hour dial.

The multi-component case of the model includes forged and engraved parts. The hand-engraved dial is decorated using the champlevé enamel technique. Each bracelet link is cut and processed separately, then joined with hidden gold wire.

Pocket/table clocks designed by Ludovic Piton. When closed, the 68 x 42 mm case fits comfortably in a pocket. It comes with a 30 cm titanium chain. By pressing two buttons, the inner case can be removed and the watch can be transformed into a desk accessory through simple manipulations.

The inner case includes meteorite inlays that beautifully frame the skeletonized mechanism based on caliber 7121. This year, the watch will be available in 5 versions with different stone combinations.
