Footnotes

Conceived in secret and launched in the midst of the quartz crisis, Audemars Piguet's 1978 release of the world's thinnest self winding perpetual calendar wristwatch was one of the greatest horological innovations of the late 1970s.

Jacqueline Dimier, famed for her incredible contribution to the Royal Oak, was the design mastermind behind the original 5548 Perpetual Quantieme. The 5548 was her playground from which she went on to design a vast number of magnificent models and variations.

The reference 5548 is famously the first wristwatch to be fitted with the ultra-thin calibre 2120/2800 and went on to become a huge success for the company, the most prolific perpetual calendar in its time for Audemars Piguet, selling at its peak 675 examples in a single year. The reference 5548 can be found across both B & early C series.
