I could be wrong, but that image looks like it had been produced using an application, that had never been in a vector-formatted orientation. If I were you, I would use Vector Magic (non-Adobe product), an online program that transforms raster files to vector files automatically with some neat features. It has a monthly-fee, if you sign up for it online, or you can buy a license (about $360) for it, to work on two computers.

One benefit it has is that you can save files as .AI files using it.

I would google "guilloche illustrator"

That looks like some very intricate guillochee drawing that maybe can't be done using the typical methods in Illustrator.

I know one artist who does artwork of this nature.  However, since he is using another tool other than an Adobe product... I probably should not promote him in the forums. 

So I would go with Ton's suggestion as it looks like there are several videos relating to this on Google....
