An absolute true gem! An unpolished 1990s Audemars Piguet Huitième Automatic Chronograph in rare 18k rose gold and tantalum reference 25644TR with a superb smooth grey dial. This example comes with its original Audemars Piguet 18k Rose Gold / Tantalum deployante buckle.

The Audemars Piguet Huitième Chronograph Ref. 25644TR, introduced in the 1990s, is a striking and rare expression of the brand's innovative spirit during that era. Crafted in a unique combination of 18k rose gold and tantalum, a dense, bluish-grey metal known for its corrosion resistance and rarity in watchmaking, this timepiece exemplifies bold material experimentation. The 41mm case houses a sophisticated automatic chronograph movement and features a beautifully balanced grey dial with contrasting sub-dials and gold accents, blending elegance with sportiness. As part of the "Huitième" collection—a name referencing the 1/8th of a second precision in chronographs—this reference stands out for its luxurious yet understated aesthetic and its importance as a transitional piece between classic and contemporary Audemars Piguet design.
