AP has used display case backs on various non-inhouse movements over the years (the most famous one being the 15202 Jumbo). The main reason is where AP has exclusivity over the movement or has exclusive customisations done to it. In this case, it's a Vaucher base cal. 3002 with customisations that are exclusive to AP, e.g. different bridges, rotor and Geneva stripes.
