Audemars Piguet has announced the release of the new CODE 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Flying Tourbillon. The lineup includes three models with ruby root, blue sodalite, and green malachite dials, all featuring a flying tourbillon at the 6 o'clock position.
A mysterious dial featuring natural stones and a flying tourbillon
Audemars Piguet's "CODE 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Flying Tourbillon" has been expanded with three limited edition stone dial models, all of which feature a compact 38mm diameter 18K gold case.
The natural stones used for the dial are ruby root from Tanzania, blue sodalite from Brazil, and green malachite from Zambia. Each natural stone has its own unique pattern, which is what makes them so appealing. The stones are thinly sliced, and an opening for the tourbillon is also provided, demonstrating the high level of Audemars Piguet's craftsmanship.

There are no indexes, and the inner bezel is simply marked with markers from 05 to 60. The simple, stripped-down design enhances the presence and mystery of the stone dial.
The flying tourbillon, which is not supported by a bridge on the dial side and appears to be floating, has a gold frame that harmonizes with the natural stone and gives it a radiant look.
The case is crafted in 18K white gold for the ruby root dial model, 18K pink gold for the blue sodalite dial model, and 18K yellow gold for the green malachite dial model. Thanks to its slim flying tourbillon movement, the watch is just 9.6mm thick. The strap is crafted from alligator leather in the same color as the dial and is fitted with an 18K gold folding buckle.
The see-through case back allows you to view the 3.4mm thick automatic flying tourbillon movement, Cal. 2968. You can enjoy the hand-finished workmanship of artisans, such as the rotor bearing the brand logo and the skeletonized bridge.
