Catalogue Essay
Launched in 1972 by Audemars Piguet in collaboration with Gerald Genta, the Royal Oak model has been fitted with a variety of designs, complications and dials.
More than 40 years after its inception, the Royal Oak continues to enjoy enormous popularity. Audemars Piguet constantly reinvents the classic model, as exemplified by the present watch. Featuring a tourbillon and chronograph function, this watch still retains its traditional look, such as the engine-turned 'tapissiere' dial and iconic bezel that the Royal Oak is best known for.
