This exquisite Audemars Piguet Disco Volante Ref. 5093 is a rare and historically significant dress watch from the golden age of Swiss watchmaking, dating to approximately 1954–1956. Known for its ultra-thin profile and minimalist elegance, the Disco Volante (Italian for “flying saucer”) is a true collector’s piece—an embodiment of Audemars Piguet’s mid-century innovation and refined craftsmanship.

This example is in excellent condition, recently serviced by our in-house Omega-certified watchmaker, and is powered by the legendary Caliber 2003 manual wind movement—a 17-jewel ultra-thin movement developed in collaboration with Jaeger-LeCoultre. The movement number 68073 and case number 11841 confirm its mid-1950s production, placing it among the earliest executions of this iconic reference.

The white dial is exceptionally well preserved, with the Audemars Piguet Genève signature crisp and clearly visible. Its understated charm is enhanced by the signature wide flat bezel and sleek case architecture, which helped define the era’s elegant design language.

This watch comes with its original box, a New Old Stock glossy alligator strap from Audemars Piguet, and the original 18k yellow gold Audemars Piguet buckle (marked 750). The strap is suitable for wrist sizes up to 20.5 cm.

A beautifully preserved example of post-war haute horlogerie, this Disco Volante is more than just a dress watch—it’s a wearable piece of design history.

All watches are shipped free of charge via DHL Express with full insurance. Dispatch is arranged within 0–2 business days after your payment has been received in our bank account. On average, delivery takes 1–2 business days within the EU, 2–4 business days to the USA, and 2–4 business days worldwide. The watch is located in the European Union (EU). Buyers are responsible for any duties and taxes for watches shipped internationally (outside the EU). We do not ship on weekends. For security, delivery is made only to the person named on the order. A valid ID and the tracking number, provided prior to shipping, will be required upon receipt.

Watches are eligible for return or refund within 14 days from the date the package is delivered. All returned watches will be thoroughly inspected for any signs of wear, tear, or damage. Any such signs may negatively impact the customer’s refund. Refunds are issued to the original payment method used at the time of purchase. All watches are delivered with a transparent protective tape and a secure seal that does not obstruct inspection of the watch. If the tape is removed or the seal is broken, returns will not be accepted.
