Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet continues to evolve its contemporary Code 11.59 lineup with the introduction of three new references, each defined by the use of natural stone dials and elevated craftsmanship. The release places a clear spotlight on the Asian market, with two Japan exclusive models, one of which is set to debute in Japan ahead of a wider global rollout.
Leading the drop is a 38mm self winding model set to launch first in Japan this July. Crafted in 18k white gold, the piece stands out with a vivid turquoise stone dial, its saturated tone offset by rhodium toned pink gold hour markers and white gold hands. The colour story continues through a textured rubber coated strap, giving the watch a modern, slightly sport driven edge. Inside, the Calibre 5909 movement delivers a 60 hour power reserve. The model is priced at ¥7,920,000 JPY, approximately $49,966 USD.
Alongside it, AP introduces two 41mm Japan exclusive editions that highlight the architectural complexity of the Code 11.59 case. One arrives in 18k yellow gold with a striking malachite dial, defined by its deep green tones and naturally occurring banded patterns. The other pairs an 18k white gold case with a rich blue sodalite dial, accented by distinctive white calcite veining. Both models are finished with 13 baguette cut diamond hour markers, adding a refined layer of luxury to the bold mineral surfaces.
Powering both references is the self winding Calibre 4309, offering an extended 70 hour power reserve. Pricing for the Japan exclusive models remains available upon request, with availability beginning this May 2026.
The latest additions underscore Audemars Piguet’s continued push to blend traditional haute horlogerie with contemporary design codes, leaning into rare materials and regional exclusivity to drive appeal among collectors.
