Description

Introduced in 1972 and designed by Gérald Genta, one of watchmaking's most renowned designers, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak made history as the first stainless steel luxury sports watch. Its release was a strategic move to navigate through the quartz crisis, and the Royal Oak's remarkable success is often credited with ensuring Audemars Piguet's survival to this day. Since its debut, the Royal Oak has become the cornerstone of Audemars Piguet's collections, establishing itself as one of the most significant timepieces offered by the Le Brassus-based manufacturer. Over time, it has evolved into one of the most coveted watches on the market. This extraordinary, highly rare Tourbillon example comes with a presentation non-AP box.
