Audemars Piguet Partners with the Clinton Foundation Equation of Time Watch

Audemars Piguet continues its long tradition of philanthropy through its Audemars Piguet Foundation, by contributing a significant portion of the proceeds from the sale of each Clinton Foundation Equation of Time timepiece will benefit The Clinton Foundation which looks to help the world move beyond the current state of globalization to a more integrated global community of shared benefits, responsibilities, and values.

The Clinton Foundation Equation of Time encompasses a truly amazing group of timepieces that remains true to Audemars Piguet's tradition of excellence and creative daring-a presentation of workmanship that stands out especially in the firm's highly complex watch mechanisms. These timepieces combine several functions including the equation of time, sunrise and sunset times, and a perpetual calendar with astronomical moon. Each of the Clinton Foundation Equation of Time timepieces features The White House as a location on the graduated ring of the watch and a seal of President Clinton engraved on the back of the watch.
The platinum edition will be presented along with an architectural scale model of the White House.
President Clinton was the 42nd President of the United States, thus there are only 42 of the Clinton Foundation Equation of Time watches in each of three luxurious materials: platinum, rose gold, and white gold.

"My Foundation is working around the world to have a measurable and sustainable impact on some of the most pressing issues we face today, such as HIV/AIDS, global climate change, poverty and the health epidemic of childhood obesity in the United States," said President Clinton. "We cannot do this work alone, and I thank Audemars Piguet for their support of my Foundation."
