The History:
Audemars Piguet History
A trio of warships christened Royal Oak, named after the
legendary "royal oak" (a hollowed out tree which offered King
Charles II a safe hiding place from his pursuers) lent their
distinctive name in 1972 to an equally distinctive luxury
sports watch -- the Royal Oak by Audemars Piguet. Since then,
the Royal Oak has become the leading model of the world-famous
firm in Le Brassus and helped the stainless steel wristwatch
attain respectability among watch lovers around the world.
The Audemars Piguet story begins in 1875 when
twenty-three-year-old watchmaker Jules Audemars and future
partner Edward-August Piguet, just twenty-one years of age,
met in the Vallee de Joux. Both had learned the watchmaker's
trade after finishing public school in their hometown of Le
Brassus by training at the bench. They had returned to the
Vallee de Joux to find jobs in the local watchmaking industry.
