{"product_id":"rare-audemars-piguet-cobra","title":"RARE AUDEMARS PIGUET COBRA","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eAudemars Piguet may be synonymous with the Royal Oak, but true connoisseurs know the brand’s archives hold some of the most daring and avant-garde designs in watchmaking history. The Audemars Piguet Cobra is a perfect example—a rare and breathtaking creation by none other than Gérald Genta, the visionary behind the Royal Oak.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eCrafted in 18K white gold, this Cobra is pure luxury. The intricately woven Polonaise mesh bracelet, an architectural marvel that seamlessly flows into the case, creates a design so fluid and sculptural it feels almost organic. This is the kind of craftsmanship that Genta himself called “magnificent,” a testament to his obsession with perfectly integrated form and function.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eFor us, what makes this watch so special and breathtaking is the shape of the dial. You can only describe it by what it is not. The sides are gently convex, not continuously curved like an ellipse. The top and bottom flatten slightly before turning; you cannot call it an oval. Not quite a lozenge, not quite a cushion. The shape is defined by orientation rather than symmetry.  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eThen there is the combination of the coolness of the white gold framing the midnight blue of the dial. The case and bracelet act like a light source, while the midnight blue dial acts like depth. The eye reads the watch from the outside in, then settles. That’s why the baton indices work so well: they’re thin enough to avoid breaking the field, but metallic enough to reintroduce light inside the blue, like distant points on a dark horizon.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eUnderneath, a manual wind movement powers the watch, a nod to classical Swiss horology.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eCobra models are elusive and rarely seen in the wild, and this particular reference is even rarer. With its striking proportions and impeccable provenance, this is more than just a timepiece—it’s a genuine collector’s trophy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaker: Audemars Piguet\u003cbr\u003eModel: Rare Cobra\u003cbr\u003eYear: 1978-1984\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: 18k White Gold\u003cbr\u003eDial: Midnight Blue\u003cbr\u003eCase Measurement: 27mm\u003cbr\u003eMovement: Manual Wind\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very good\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 78 Grams\u003cbr\u003eSize: Fits Up to 6.1\" Wrist\u003cbr\u003eMade in Switzerland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAll vintage and pre-owned watches sold by Stephanie Windsor are guaranteed to be genuine and authentic.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eWe also guarantee the proper functioning of your watch’s mechanical movement for one (1) year from the date of purchase.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eOur warranty does not cover damage resulting from accidents, misuse, neglect, water damage or normal wear and tear.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003ePlease note that we do not guarantee waterproofing on vintage or pre-owned timepieces.
