This one-of-a-kind Certified Pre-Owned Audemars Piguet Canapé 14934BA features an 18K yellow gold case, a black leather strap with an 18K yellow gold ardillon buckle, and a sapphire crystal. With only 75 limited-edition pieces produced, its 45x28x9.6 mm two-body solid case is adorned with eight 18-karat gold screws and cylindrical lugs reminiscent of an antique sofa's armrest, hence the French origin of the term "canapé." The polished "violin scroll" hooded lugs, Art Deco rectangular bezel, and silver dial with yellow gold applied baton and alternating Arabic numeral hour indices at 12, 2, 4, 8, and 10 o'clock around a perimeter minute track and 6 o'clock subsidiary small-seconds dial all make this timepiece a unique, distinguished addition.
