Catalogue Essay

Introduced in 2003, the reference 15129ST.OO.0789ST.01 is the mid-sized variant of the Royal Oak, featuring a 36mm case, a clean Tapisserie dial, and a date function. With the brand’s signature integrated bracelet, this model offers a snug fit suitable for both genders. The present timepiece is, most importantly, part of a very rare limited edition series made specifically for the Kuwait market, with only 20 examples ever produced. Notably, the caseback is embossed with the proud emblem of Kuwait.
Extremely well-preserved and presented in “like-new” condition, this example with its full set of accessories appears to have never been worn, as it retains partial factory stickers on the inner side of the bracelet. As mid-sized Royal Oaks are starting to make a come back in the market, it is sure to ignite strong interest among the Audemars Piguet community of collectors.

Since its earliest days, AP is considered a leader in the field of minute repeaters and grande complication pocket and wristwatches. The brand is devoted to preserving the history of watchmaking in the Vallée de Joux, showcased at their superb museum in Le Brassus.


Today, the brand is best known for its Royal Oak models, a revolutionary luxury sports watch launched in 1972. Other key models include early minute repeating wristwatches, vintage chronograph wristwatches, such as the oversized reference 5020, perpetual calendar watches and the Royal Oak Offshore, first introduced in 1993.
