Well, let me tell ya, Audemars Piguet, that’s a fancy name, ain’t it? Sounds like somethin’ for the big shots, the ones with the thick wallets.
So, you wanna buy one of them watches? First off, you gotta figure out how to pay. They got this thing, Zip, where you can pay in four pieces over six weeks. Sounds like layaway to me, but they dress it up with fancy words. Just don’t miss no payments, or you might be in a pickle.
- Money, Money, Money: Now, in Singapore, these watches, they ain’t cheap. Prices start around 20 SGD, and that’s just for starters. Some of ’em, the fancy ones, can cost a whole lot more. Heard tell they go up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in some other places. Yikes! That’s more money than I’ve seen in my whole life!
Speaking of big shots, the fella who used to run the show, Fran-something Bennahmias, he’s steppin’ down next year. Guess he made enough dough to retire comfy. Wonder how much he was gettin’ paid? They say some folks at Audemars Piguet make 43 bucks an hour! Imagine that, 43 dollars just for an hour of work! And then there are the poor souls who only get 18. Life ain’t fair, is it?
Now, why are these watches so darn expensive? Well, they don’t make a whole lotta them. Only 40,000 or so each year. They say it’s ’cause they’re all made real special, with fancy craftsmanship and all that. But I reckon it’s also ’cause they wanna keep the prices up high. If everyone had one, they wouldn’t be so special, right?
They got all sorts of styles, too. Some look like the old-fashioned ones, like the Royal Oak 5402. Then there’s the newfangled ones, like the Code 11.59 and the Royal Oak Concept Tourbillon Chronograph. Sounds like a mouthful, don’t it? The Concept ones, they’ll cost ya a pretty penny, between 195,000 and 300,000 USD. The cheapest Code 11.59 is around 24,500 USD. That’s still more than I paid for my whole house!
And if you’re over in Hong Kong, you can find Audemars Piguet there too. They got all the fancy models, and you can check the prices right there. Just make sure you’re gettin’ the real deal, not some cheap knock-off. Don’t wanna be spendin’ all that money on somethin’ that ain’t worth a dime.
So, there ya have it. Audemars Piguet. Fancy watches, big prices, and a whole lotta talk. If you got the money, go ahead and splurge. But for folks like me, well, we’ll just stick to tellin’ time by the sun. It’s free, and it never needs a battery.
