In the early 1930s, Audemars Piguet customized a watch for John Shaeffer, the then vice-chairperson of the Allied Chemical and Dye Corporation, to have the 12 letters of his name used as hour markers. The manufacturer granted his wish, and retrofitted his minute repeater as desired.
In the 1990s, Audemars Piguet launched a special collection under the moniker of John Shaeffer. The Répétition Minutes Star Wheel John Shaeffer model, created in 1996, is one of only three ever created. Housed in a titanium cushion-shaped case very similar in style to the original Shaeffer watch, the present watch, numbered 2, features a star wheel wandering hour complication visible through the fan-shaped aperture. It is also driven by a 34-jewel, dual-gong manual caliber 2867 minute-repeater movement.
In excellent overall condition, this rare piece is one of the most intriguing Audemars Piguet examples in the history of horology.
