Audemars Piguet Edward Piguet Perpetual Calendar 18k Yellow Gold

This Edward Piguet Perpetual Calendar reference 25682BA, crafted in the 1990s, is an exemplar of Audemars Piguet’s refined rectangular artistry—its Art Deco–inspired, 18k yellow gold case measures approximately 27 x 45 mm with a slender 8.5 mm profile, delivering elegant presence with comfort and poise. The warm yellow gold perfectly complements a silvered dial adorned with painted Arabic (akin to Breguet) numerals and recessed subdials displaying day, date, month, moonphase at 6 o’clock, and leap year indication—a rare combination that harks back to classical calendar wristwatch tradition ([fabsuisse.com](https://fabsuisse.com/audemars-piguet-quantieme-edward-piguet-25682-perpetual-calendar-moonphase-18k-gold-1980s/?utm_source=openai)). Powering the watch is the manual‑wind Caliber 2003/2—an ultra‑thin movement rooted in a JLC design from the mid‑20th century, enhanced by AP’s perpetual calendar module, noted for its remarkable thinness (around 3.19 mm) and finishing quality ([everywatch.com](https://everywatch.com/audemars-piguet/edward-piguet/25682/watch-65786?utm_source=openai)). This reference is especially revered among collectors for its harmonious design symmetry, technical prowess, and scarcity in yellow gold, often resurfacing only in mature dealer inventories. Offered in excellent condition, this example retains its original black crocodile leather strap and matching 18k yellow gold tang buckle, accompanied by its Audemars Piguet leather pouch—an understated yet complete package for the purist appreciating both aesthetic refinement and mechanical distinction in a vintage perpetual calendar offering.
