Alright, so you wanna know about them Audemars Piguet watches, huh? People call ’em AP for short. Fancy stuff, these are. Like, real fancy. Don’t know much ’bout fancy, but I seen pictures. Shiny and all. Someone told me they’re like the king of watches. King? I dunno about that. Seems like a lot of money for tellin’ time, but hey, what do I know?
Heard tell these watches, they ain’t cheap. Nope, not one bit. Someone was yappin’ ’bout how much they cost. Think they said somethin’ ’bout “thousands” and “dollars.” My head started spinnin’! Thousands? For a watch? You could buy a whole lotta chickens with that kinda money. Or a nice cow. Good milk cow, that is.
- Now, they say some AP watches, they’re like, normal expensive. Like, “only” four thousand dollars. Four thousand! That’s still a heap of money, let me tell ya.
- But then, there’s the really fancy ones. The ones the rich folks wear. They’re talkin’ fifty thousand, ninety-five thousand. Lordy, I can’t even imagine that much money!
- And get this, there’s one they call the “Jumbo.” Sounds like a big ol’ fella, doesn’t it? Well, that one’s over two hundred thousand dollars! Two hundred thousand! For a watch! You could buy a whole farm with that kinda money. Maybe two!
Why are they so expensive, you ask? Well, they say it’s ’cause they don’t make too many of ’em. Like, only forty thousand a year. That ain’t much, I guess, not for the whole world. And they say they’re made real good, with fancy parts and all. Folks seem to like ’em, collectors and such. They’re always tryin’ to get their hands on ’em.
Heard tell there’s this “average” price for an AP watch. Fifty thousand, they say. Fifty thousand! That’s a lot of cabbage. But then, there’s other ones, the Jules Audemars, or somethin’. Those ones start at eighteen thousand, go all the way up to almost a million! A million dollars for a watch! Can you believe that? I sure can’t. You could buy a whole town with that kinda money, maybe even a small country!
Now, where you gonna buy one of these fancy watches? Well, they got these places called “boutiques.” Sound fancy, don’t they? But good luck findin’ one there. They don’t have many, seems like. People are always lookin’ for ’em, payin’ crazy prices. Crazy, I tell ya!
And then there’s this thing called “servicing.” Like fixin’ ’em up when they break. That ain’t cheap either. They gotta be made a certain way, not too old. Guess even fancy watches can get old and worn out, just like us.
So, there ya have it. What I know ’bout them AP watches. Lots of money, not many around, folks want ’em bad. Me? I’ll stick with my ol’ clock on the wall. Tells time just fine, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg. But hey, if you got the money, go ahead and get yourself one of them fancy AP watches. Just don’t come cryin’ to me when you realize you coulda bought a whole herd of cows instead.
