WHY WE LOVE IT
–
One name: Gérald 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 that 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 case materials, from steel to carbon fiber or solid gold.
This particular model, a reference 15300BA.00D088CR.01, features a 39mm 18k yellow gold construction, a matching white tapisserie dial with applied, lumed baton indices and matching handset, and Audemars Piguet's Calibre 3120 automatic-winding movement within.
Furthermore this piece, with its unworn, stickered bracelet, remains in virtually NOS condition, and is suitable for nearly any wrist! Dating to the 2020s, it features its inner and outer boxes, books, and undated papers from Vicci Fine Jewelry in Las Vegas, NV.
Try it on the wrist once, and you'll have a tough time taking it off — don't say we didn't warn you!
