Introduced by Audemars Piguet, created by the acclaimed watchmaker Gerald Genta and inspired by traditional diver’s helmet, the Royal Oak model was specifically made in the early 1970s to help the manufacturer face the troubled financial conditions during the “Quartz War”.
Throughout the years, the Royal Oak has gained immense popularity among collectors and remains one of the most luxury stainless steel timepieces offered on the market today.
The present Royal Oak delivers the day of the week and date displays, coupled with a moon-phase indicator at 6 o'clock and furthermore it encompasses all the legendary elements which made the Royal Oak a legend.
