Default L'Audemars Piguet Millenary MC12 Tourbillon Montre

Do you have an MC12 but no matching timepiece?
Well worry no more, because there's the Millenary MC12 Tourbillon made by one of Maserati's sponsors, Audemars Piguet.

Only 150 of these beauties will be built in Switzerland.
Some of the features include:
-Carbon fibre movement plate
-Aluminum pieces
-What Audemars Piguet calls "double rack-pinion" power reserve mechanism

The band is obviously in Maserati blue and the face is clear so that you can see every exquisite detailing. (Just look at that Audemars Piguet and Maserati inscriptions on the plates)

The other Maserati watch can go up to $30,000+ so this watches's price? I can't figure.

I'd have this watch over that silly Parmigiani Fleurier Bugatti Type 370 any day.

2 month ago, they took the "local MC12" (from Foitek) for a photoshooting with Audemars Piguet ... I guess it was for this watch
thanks for the link!
but can't find a picture with the MC12 so far on the site :bah:

I don't like how it looks like. Nothing against seeing the interior, but I've seen some other watches do it better...

Not a bad looking watch tho'!

Too cluttered for my liking. I like watches that keep it simple. That said, if someone gave me one of those, I'd be stoked.

Quite a nice piece, a bit tricky to tell the time, but you can get used to it

Agreed, you can barely see the hands with all that clutter.

I'd probably waste days watching those little bits and pieces work.
