The chronograph

A chronograph is a stopwatch built into the watch. On most models one pusher starts and stops it and another sets it back to zero, while the time of day runs on regardless. The counters on the dial add up the elapsed minutes and, on many models, the hours.

III · The manufacture

Audemars Piguet since 1875

Jules Louis Audemars opened his workshop in Le Brassus in 1875, the year the house traces its beginnings to. His formal partnership with Edward Auguste Piguet was signed in 1881. A minute-repeating wristwatch marked an early complication milestone in 1892. Gérald Genta’s Royal Oak brought an octagonal bezel and integrated steel bracelet in 1972. The Royal Oak Offshore of 1993 enlarged that language into a more substantial sports chronograph. Code 11.59 opened another design chapter in 2019. The Code 11.59 Ultra-Complication Universelle RD#4 won the GPHG Aiguille d’Or in 2023. The new Le Brassus manufacture was inaugurated in January 2026, bringing the main crafts under one roof. The Swiss company remains independent and owned by its founding families.

IV · Ownership

Wearing and caring

1
An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.
2
Water resistance of 100 m and more is for swimming. Keep the crown screwed or pushed in, and do not use the pushers under water.
3
Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
