Today's offering showcases this refined Audemars Piguet Meridian ladies dress watch in gorgeous condition.

With its interesting indexed bezel on its ultra-thin case and distinctive silver dial (face) inspired by ancient mariners and an integrated bracelet has a beads of rice design accented with golden spheres, it exudes timeless elegance and class.

This is how AP described the line in their advertisements: "You're on the way: for those destined to achieve, Audemars Piguet has created the Meridian Collection.

Inspired by the ancient mariners and their determination to succeed, this spirited collection is designed for men and woman who refuse to settle for second best.

Sporty yet elegant, the Meridian features a gently rounded face and a supple bracelet that encircles the wrist with comfort and ease.

Only Audemars Piguet could fashion a watch so enviably thin, so smartly conceived and make it water resistant [originally].

The Meridian Collection, quartz calendar watches for men and women in 1*K gold or 18K gold and steel; just one more reason for making the climb."

The hands on it are one of the most beautiful designs we've seen, a feature of certain AP's from the era. Each has two textures - half of each hand vertically has a high polish finish and half has a stardust texturing. It's a wonderful detail, and our photos couldn't quite capture how it looks. Included in the listing is a photo of ladies AP with the same style of hands that we previously sold.

Powering it is a fine quartz Audemars Piguet movement.

It has all of its original parts and has just finished a true expertly done refurbishing. It presents in gorgeous condition as a 9.6 out of 10.

Its case presents as mint with strong stamping and only slight signs of previous polishing. Its dial has been meticulously refinished - the printing could pass as Audemars Piguet factory done to the naked eye. Its bracelet presents as mint on the wrist with no stretch at all.

A Master Watchmaker has performed any needed servicing. For the finishing touch, we have meticulously making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
