Catalogue Essay
The year 2022 marks the 50th anniversary of one of the most famous watches of the 20th century: the Royal Oak. Conceived by talented designer, Gerald Genta, legend has it that the first drawing of the watch only took him one night. A night to revolutionize the vision of luxury watchmaking and propel steel sports watches to the pinnacle of masculine elegance. Since 1972, Audemars Piguet has shown its boundless creativity on developing the Royal Oak. Initially presented in stainless steel case, grey tapisserie dial, with a diameter of 39mm and with an integrated stainless steel bracelet, the model would be reincarnated in over 500 variations.
In 2010, the brand unveiled the reference 15305 at the SIHH (Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie based in Geneva). This new reference is powered by the caliber 3129, which is the openworked version of Audemar Piguet's in-house 3120 found in the traditional reference 15300. The caseback and face of the watch reveal, through the anti-reflective sapphire crystal, the hand-finished and skeletonized ruthenium bridges and mainplate, as well as on the caseback side, the remarkable 22-carat gold winding rotor.
Offered in excellent condition thanks to a recent full overhaul at Audemars Piguet, the present pink gold skeleton Royal Oak comes with all its accessories: box, outer box, warranty and user manual.
