This timepiece from Audemars Piguet is extremely rare, and is the perfect watch for any horological aficionado. The watch is made of 18K rose gold and the very rare metal; tantalum. Tantalum's name is derived from the name Tantalus, a character from Greek mythology. Tantalus is known for his eternal punishment in Tartarus. His punishment consisted of standing in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree from which he could never reach the fruit and the water he stood in would always recede before he could drink from it. Like the water Tantalus eternally stood in, tantalum is a hard, blue-grey color, a perfect juxtaposition to the rose gold.
The dial is rose gold and boasts the standard hours and minutes indication alongside a perpetual calendar function and moon phase indication.
The caseback is transparent to further show off the watch's impressive mechanics. Lastly, the watch features a combo rose gold and tantalum bracelet with an integrated clasp.
