Audemars Piguet unveils the Neo Frame: a watch that reinvents jumping hour in 2025

Fine watchmaking is at a turning point. Audemars Piguet is hitting hard with a bold new product: the Neo Frame. This jumping-hour watch is shaking up established codes and is already attracting the attention of enthusiasts.

A radical vision of jumping hour

Jumping hour remains a rare complication in the world of luxury watches. However, the Manufacture in Le Brassus has chosen to revisit it with a resolutely modern approach. The result is striking in its technical and aesthetic originality.

The Neo Frame features a rectangular case in 18-carat rose gold. Its dimensions of 34 mm x 32.6 mm x 8.8 mm give it an assertive presence on the wrist. What’s more, this geometric shape breaks with the brand‘s usual circular designs.

The black PVD-coated sapphire dial offers remarkable visual depth. Every detail of the mechanism becomes a spectacle in its own right. This transparency reveals the exceptional craftsmanship of our artisans.

“The Neo Frame embodies a new era for the jumping hour, where technology exposes itself without modesty.”

Calibre 7122 at the heart of innovation

At the heart of this creation beats the calibre 7122, developed especially for this model. This movement ensures an instantaneous jump in time with surgical precision. As a result, reading the time becomes intuitive and enjoyable.

The finishing of the movement meets the highest standards. Each component is meticulously hand-finished. At the same time, this attention to detail never sacrifices the robustness required for everyday use.
