Audemars Piguet Tapisserie Pattern dial
Audemars Piguet is one of the premier watchmakers around today.
One of their most famous models is the Royal Oak. Designed by the late Gérald Genta, it is an iconic piece with its octagonal bezel and shape.
Another great feature of the watch is the
Tapisserie Pattern dial. It is done by an old process called engine turning.
This video from Audemars Piguet shows how it is done.
It provides the watch with a great depth and the dial is a thing of beauty.
