Reference 15056BC belongs to the Jules Audemars collection, the line Audemars Piguet devotes to classic watchmaking. It is a round watch in 18k white gold, 36 mm in diameter, with hours, minutes and small seconds at 6 o’clock: a dress watch in the fullest sense of the term, far removed from the sporting register for which the Maison is best known today.
The model
Produced from the early 2000s and now discontinued, the 15056BC follows a traditional layout: restrained proportions, a sober dial and small seconds in a dedicated sub-dial. In the Jules Audemars collection these models usually feature silvered dials, with applied indices or Roman numerals and gold hands, and a crocodile strap.
The movement
The watch is powered by an in-house mechanical manual-winding movement, a choice consistent with the classic spirit of the model. For the collector it is an example of Audemars Piguet’s traditional watchmaking in a format that remains perfectly wearable.
