With Audemars Piguet Certificat d'Origine et de Garantie dated May 2004, instruction booklet and wooden presentation box.
According to the Archives of Audemars Piguet the present watch with pink gold case, black dial and 8 pink triangles and 10 indexes was manufactured in 2001 and sold in 2004.
The Jules Audemars "Equation of Time" was introduced into the market in 2000. This complicated wristwatch incorporates a perpetual calendar with leap year indicator, mechanically tracks the time of sunrise and sunset for the designated city (indicated on the bezel following its owner's request) and accurately shows the difference between mean solar time and sidereal time. The "Equation of Time" and its 423 components is another example for Audemars Piguet's dedication to the art of fine watchmaking.
The equation of time is the difference between true solar time and mean time. True solar time, given by sundials, varies from day to day because of the Earth's elliptical orbit, and according to the longitude of the point of observation. Meantime, given by watches, ignores these variations and for every day of the year mathematically divides time into equal hours.
