Whereas the Royal Oak was launched in 1972 and saw a wide array of complications added to it over time, it wasn’t until 1997 that one of the most popular complications was developed in the now iconic design.
In the first half of the 2000s, Audemars Piguet presented an elusive limited edition 39mm Royal Oak chronograph with a “panda” dial and blue accents reserved for owners of an Eurocopter Helicopter (now Airbus Helicopter). The watch was never officially released and not available in boutiques. It is unclear how many were made but only a handful have come to the auction market in the past decade.
The caseback of this particular example is further engraved M-KOGO which corresponds to the registration number of an Eurocopter EC135T2+ as well as a remarkable 72m super yacht leading us to believe that the three belonged to the same owner.
Other than its mysterious provenance, the present Eurocopter is a very elegant chronograph and as far as research shows, the only other 39mm Royal Oak chronograph with a “panda” (white background and black sub-counters) dial, the other being the “Tour Auto” which has red accents as opposed to the blue accents on the present piece.
Furthermore, originally the Eurocopter chronograph was available only with a rubber strap, the current owner had a steel bracelet added.
A rare and attractive watch surrounded by a shroud of mystery, the present Royal Oak Eurocopter Chronograph is sure to delight collectors of rare Royal Oak models.
