AP Jules Audemars ref. 26151OR “Jump Hour Minute Repeater”

Up for grabs is an Audemars Piguet Jules Audemars Minute Repeater with Jumping Hours Ref. 26151OR.OO.D002CR.02 in 18k rose gold.

A 43mm manual-wind complicated watch from the early 2000s, combining a minute repeater with jumping hours — one of the more unusual and technically interesting modern AP complications.

The silver dial features a guilloché center with applied Arabic numerals, blued steel hands, and a highly symmetrical layout. The rose gold case measures approximately 12mm thick.

Through the sapphire display back is the Audemars Piguet Calibre 2907.

The watch is fitted on its original black Audemars Piguet strap with the factory rose gold folding clasp.

Presented in excellent condition with no major scratches, dings, or dents. The watch appears unpolished, retaining the original brushed case sides. Hallmarks and engravings on the caseback remain exceptionally crisp and deep.

The repeater functions properly with a clear and pronounced sound. The jumping hours mechanism operates correctly as well.

Offered with its original Audemars Piguet boxes and original warranty papers with matching numbers.

No known service history. The last known MSRP was approximately $299,000 around 15 years ago.
