Named after one of the original Audemars Piguet founders, the Jules Audemars collection comprises numerous highly complicated watches, ranging from tourbillons to minute repeaters, as well as simple time-only pieces. This collection embodies the brand's core philosophy of creating comfortably sized, well-proportioned cases with traditionally styled dials, offering an understated yet profoundly captivating aesthetic.

The present example, the Jules Audemars Répétition Minute Tourbillon, showcases Audemars Piguet's dedication to horological precision and artistry. The minute repeater function chimes melodiously to indicate the time, harmonizing with the mesmerizing rotation of the tourbillon cage. Its classic round case in white gold and diamond-set and mother-of-pearl dial design make the watch a cherishable timepiece for generations to come.
