Audemars Piguet stands as one of the most versatile brands in the industry, excelling in the creation of a wide range of timepieces. Known for producing both ultra-classic dress watches and bold luxury sports models, it is, of course, best recognized for the iconic Royal Oak. The timepiece offered here is a more elegant counterpart to the Royal Oak, embodying the perfect blend of sophistication and sportiness. Its striking design is defined by a rare and intricate decoration on both the case and integrated bracelet. The 34 mm size, crafted from 18k white gold, provides an ideal balance of refinement and presence, making it a truly captivating watch. What truly sets this piece apart is the bold rope-twist pattern, which covers the entire watch. While this type of decoration is typically done on a smaller scale, in this instance, the larger mesh design allows the blue satin dial to stand out prominently. Powering the watch is the remarkable automatic caliber 2121, a movement still in use today in the Royal Oak Jumbo reference 15 202. The deep blue dial beautifully highlights the white text, discreet date window at 3 o’clock, and diamond hour markers. The case, made by C.R. Spillman, and the bracelet, further elevate this watch, representing the rich heritage of both the caliber 2121 and the renowned case makers in the watchmaking world.
