Reference 14790 was in production from 1992 to 2005. Housing the automatic caliber 2125 and 2225 it remained the central model in the Royal Oak collection until it was replaced by reference 15300.
The model can be divided into 3 series
1st Series (1992): the dial features a vintage style Audemars Piguet signature with a flat A, "Petite Tapisserie" dial and long indexes
2nd Series (1993-2000): the Audemars Piguet signature is enlarged and features a pointed top A, "Petite Tapisserie" dial and long indexes
3rd Series (2000-2005): the Audemars Piguet signature is similar to the 2nd Series but the dial features "Grande Tapisserie" motif and short indexes.
At the end of the 1990s, Audemars Piguet experimented with different dial colors on the reference 14790. Amongst these experiments, we can find the famous dial nicknamed "Yves Klein" by collectors due to its similarity to the intense and electric color developed by the French artist in the 60's.
The present reference 14790 is part of the 2nd series produced between 1993 and 2000 that can easily be recognized by the pointed top of the A, the Petite Tapisserie dial and the long indexes.
Later, Audemars Piguet would offer this reference with a red dial (see lot 12) and yellow (see lot 49) both are examples of the 3rd series with small indexes and Grande Tapisserie.
Presented in excellent condition and with its box, this superb reference 14790 "Yves Klein" represents a great opportunity not to be missed.
