With its definitive contemporary appearance with ruthenium plated skeletonized movement the Royal Oak Double Balance – launched in 2016 – takes a very innovative approach to chronometry and precision by presenting a world first: a movement featuring two superimposed balance wheels, each with its own hairspring. This enables greater inertia and more stable timekeeping.
Adding extra flair to an already breathtaking, watch Audemars Piguet has uses a pink gold balance bridge which creates a bold contrast with the slate grey of the movement.
The present watch was purchased in 2022 and remains unworn.
Audemars Piguet
