Among all the Marvel superheroes, Audemars Piguet chose to begin with the Black Panther, as he symbolizes family values and a harmonious blend of tradition and cutting-edge technology. If you’re unfamiliar with this hero, you might want to watch the movie…
The 42mm case seamlessly combines titanium and ceramic alloy, treated with a variety of finishes—ranging from high-polish to brushed and sandblasted textures—to create a striking interplay of surfaces. At its heart is a dial featuring a meticulously crafted Black Panther figure, sculpted from a single block of white gold. The figure undergoes laser detailing and painstaking hand-painting, while a tourbillon beats beneath it.
The movement’s mainplate is uniquely textured and finished, housing a manually wound caliber with a 72-hour power reserve. Water-resistant to 50 meters, this timepiece is part of a highly exclusive limited edition of just 250 pieces.
