Pre-Owned Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 40990868/AS06371

WHY WE LOVE IT

One name: Gerald Genta. The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak is perhaps Genta's most memorable work, and in many ways changed the shape of the watch industry. The Royal Oak essentially created an entirely new category of 'luxury sport' timepieces, and with it came a new design language which inspired countless other manufactures. What's particularly delightful about the design of the Royal Oak is that it works brilliantly in a number of sizes and casing materials, from steel to carbon fiber or rose gold. This particular model, a Reference 56175SA, is sized at 33mm and features the famous Royal Oak textured dial with applied Tritium baton indices and a matching handset, a date function at 3:00, and that integrated bracelet that has become so... yep... iconic. Wearing a bit larger than its measurements would lead you to believe, this watch offers an exceptional value if you are looking for a more understated alternative compared to its larger siblings - even with its two tone 18k yellow gold and steel construction. Try it on the wrist once, and you'll have a tough time taking it off - don't say we didn't warn you!

OVERALL CONDITION The case is in very good condition showing normal signs of wear from age and use. Grey micro-tapisserie Tritium dial is in excellent condition with matching handset. Unsigned crown.
