Audemars Piguet Unveils the Dazzling Haute Joaillerie Sapphire Orbe
A $1 million masterpiece with 12,000 stones and a hidden timepiece redefines the fusion of high jewellery and watchmaking.
Audemars Piguet has unveiled its latest high-jewellery marvel, the Haute Joaillerie Sapphire Orbe 67705BC, a spectacular fusion of gem-setting artistry and discreet watchmaking. Inspired by the Orbe river in Le Brassus, the design mirrors the gentle transition from night to dawn with a sweeping gradient of more than 12,000 gemstones, shifting from deep sapphire blues to vivid oranges and crystalline diamonds.
The piece takes the form of a sculpted teardrop surrounded by petal-like rings, creating a dynamic, multi-layered surface that shimmers beautifully with movement. Hidden at its centre is a domed chamber housing a secret quartz timepiece, subtly integrated so the jewellery form remains uninterrupted.
Requiring over 1,050 hours of meticulous craftsmanship, every stone is individually cut and placed to evoke the fluidity of flowing water. Valued at approximately $1 million, the Sapphire Orbe stands as one of Audemars Piguet’s most extraordinary expressions of haute joaillerie and technical mastery.

As part of the collection, acclaimed actress Kareena Kapoor Khan continues as the face of Nuwa. Known for her effortless elegance, confidence, and enduring appeal, she perfectly reflects the collection’s celebration of individuality, modern femininity, and timeless sophistication.
Commenting on the launch, M. P. Ahammad, Chairman, Malabar Group, said:

With Nuwa, we wanted to translate that beauty into a contemporary diamond collection that feels sophisticated, versatile, and relevant to today’s woman. Every piece reflects a balance between intricate craftsmanship and effortless elegance, creating jewellery that can be worn and appreciated across occasions and generations.”
The collection has been designed for women who appreciate understated luxury and meaningful design. Inspired by the harmony that exists in nature, Nuwa combines delicate detailing with strong visual character, offering a distinctive expression of modern diamond jewellery.
