What is the difference between Audemars Piquet and Audemars Piguet ?
I have one watch that belongs to friend of mine that has on a dial Audemars Piquet.
Looking at the net (mostly google) I found out that there are some models that have Piaget and other Piquet (G/Q difference).
Watch has signed case (Audemars Piguet) and signed movement (Audemars Piguet),only on dial it says Piquet
What do you think?
:thanks
How old is the watch? maybe part of the "g" is missing? maybe a printing error, or maybe a replacement dial from non-company source.
Sounds strange.
Dial looks legit and not refinished,movement is signed Audemars Piaget,case is made of 18k gold and it is signed Audemars Piaget....
Here is photo
searching brings up this...Audemars Piquet for Stowell & Co. Boston; Circa: 1890(maybe this refers to a company called Piquet owned by Stowell & Co useing Audemars movements.)

No?
Incidentally, I'm sure you're all aware that there is a watch firm called "Audemars" which is not related at all to AP. Apparently in some areas of Switzerland it is a common enough family name.
We have a brand of chewing gum here in Australia called P.K. Sounds like Piquet. I wonder if there is a connection...
