"The Jules Audemars Equation of Time timepiece is a truly phenomenal piece of art. The watch boasts a round, brushed, and satin finished 18K yellow gold case and a silvered dial with a spiral guilloche texture in the center. Applied yellow gold hour markers display the indication of the hours and minutes. The dial also displays four very distinct subdials. A perpetual calendar complication that displays a date subdial at the 6 o'clock position, a day of the week subdial at the center of the 6 o'clock, a date subdial, and a month subdial at the 12 o'clock position with the center doubling as a moonphase indicator with a small leap year indicator directly to the right of this subdial.
The timepiece's main attraction, however, is its Equation of Time complications which are all synchronized to the perpetual calendar. The complications include a sunrise subdial at the 3 o'clock position, a sunset subdial at the 9 o'clock position, and EOT hand that indicates the difference between the ""mean"" time and the ""true"" time.
Lastly, the watch has a transparent case back for a closer look at the watch's inner-workings, and the brown alligator leather strap fastens to the wrist with a deployment clasp.
Water resistant to ~20m/65ft."
