Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about this Audemars Piguet thingy. It’s a fancy name, ain’t it? Sounds like somethin’ outta a fairy tale, like them stories my gran used to tell.
Now, from what I gathered, this Audemars Piguet, or whatever they call it, it’s about watches. Yeah, them things you put on your wrist to tell time. But these ain’t just any watches, no sir. They’re the fancy kind, the ones rich folks wear.
- Started by two fellas, Jules and Edward, back in the old days.
- They set up shop in a place called Le Brassus, in Switzerland. Fancy place, I reckon.
- They made watches, real fancy ones, with all sorts of gears and whatnots.
The year they started? 1875, they say. Long time ago, that was. My gran wasn’t even born then. Imagine that! And then, a few years later, in 1881, they made it all official-like. Called it Audemars Piguet & Cie. Sounds like a mouthful, don’t it?
Now, these fellas, Jules and Edward, they were watchmakers. Young and full of beans, they say. Don’t know what beans they were full of, but they must’ve been somethin’ special to make such fancy watches.
Le Brassus, where they set up shop, it’s in a valley called Valle de Joux. Pretty place, I hear. Mountains and all. Must’ve been quiet, good for makin’ watches, I guess. No hustle and bustle like in the city.
Audemars Piguet, they ain’t just any watchmaker. They’re Swiss, they say. And Swiss watches, well, they’re the best, ain’t they? That’s what folks say, anyway. They’re known for bein’ fancy and well-made. Cost a pretty penny, I bet.
These watches, they’re luxury watches. Means they’re expensive, real expensive. For rich folks, not for the likes of us. But they’re pretty to look at, I reckon. All shiny and whatnot. Makes you wonder what kind of magic they put in ’em.
Audemars Piguet, it’s a company, you see. Makes watches and sells ’em. Headquarters in Le Brassus, where it all started. Still makin’ watches, I guess. For the rich and famous.
Chinese name, you ask? Well, I don’t know about that. Don’t speak Chinese, see. But I reckon they got one. Everything’s got a Chinese name these days, ain’t it?
Wiki? What’s that? Some kinda book? Sounds fancy. Probably got all sorts of info about this Audemars Piguet. Who started it, where they started it, all that jazz.
Founding date? That’s when it all began, right? 1875, like I said. Long time ago. Imagine, still makin’ watches after all these years. Must be doin’ somethin’ right.
So, there ya have it. What I know about this Audemars Piguet. Fancy watches, Swiss made, started by two fellas a long time ago. Nothin’ more to it, I reckon. Just watches for rich folks.
