Audemars Piguet Bamboo
The Audemars Piguet “Bamboo” in 18k yellow gold is a striking expression of the maison’s jewelry- driven creativity from the 1980s. Measuring 27 × 32 mm, its sculptural case and bracelet evoke the organic rhythm of bamboo, elevated through precious metal and meticulous hand-finishing. The diamond and sapphire dial adds depth and brilliance without overpowering the design, while the manual-wind movement preserves a sense of mechanical purity. Elegant yet boldly unconventional, this piece reflects Audemars Piguet at its most artistic.
Excellent vintage condition with very minor wear
During the 1980s, Audemars Piguet explored a more expressive design language, creating watches that blurred the line between haute horology and fine jewelry. The Bamboo is emblematic of this era- defined not by complication, but by form, texture, and craftsmanship. Its articulated gold bracelet and organic motifs were conceived as a unified object, designed to sit on the wrist like a piece of wearable sculpture.
Set with diamonds and sapphires, the dial reinforces the watch’s jewelry identity while maintaining balance and refinement. Produced in limited quantities and far less commonly encountered than AP’s sport references, the Bamboo stands today as a collectible reminder of the brand’s willingness to experiment. It is a piece for collectors drawn to rarity, design integrity, and the quieter, more artistic side of Audemars Piguet’s history.
