(Click image for gallery - 8 photos)Back in January, during SIHH 2010, Audemars Piguet introduced a new skeletonized timepiece within their Royal Oak collection. And after almost a year of anticipation, AP has just released the first official press images for their beautiful new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Squelette timepiece. Skeleton watches, unlike a tourbillon or minute repeater, are not considered as complications. However, the creation of such pieces is extremely complicated. Many hours go into hand skeletonizing and engraving each timepiece. Whether it is Audemars Piguet or another brand, like Benzinger for example, skeleton timepieces are unique works of art. Unfortunately, the skill of engraving and skeletonizing timepieces, at this level, does not come cheap. Expect to pay thirty grand, minimum, for any fully skeletonized timepiece that is done by hand.

A new watch from Audemars Piguet that looks to honour movie legend Arnold Schwarzenegger has received a glowing review.Entitled the Chronographe Royal Oak Offshore Arnold Schwarzenegger The Legacy, the ticker has been given a 68 out of 100 rating by the Watch Observer.Their critic explained: "Audemars Piguet has succeeded in this challenge: the Royal Oak Offshore Arnold Schwarzenegger The Legacy is the perfect incarnation of a Hollywood star watch."One of the unique aspects of this timepiece is the fact that it is the first from the well-known watchmaker's Royal Oak collection to be made entirely from ceramic.Further appeal is highlighted in the dial of this wristwatch, which is given a mega-tapestry guilloche engraving pattern and markers finished in elegant pink gold.Earlier this month, Audemars Piguet revealed the Queen Elizabeth II Cup 2011 Royal Oak, a special-edition watch designed to celebrate the brand's 13th year sponsoring the international equine race.
