The present lot offers a good insight into Audemars Piguet's quest for innovation and creative impulse, reinventing Gérald Genta's iconic Royal Oak design by replacing the now traditional ivory or dark coloured dials with a bold and eye-catching 'Ferrari' red. Indeed, the present example provides a unique and exciting opportunity to acquire this coveted reference that has become a must-have in any serious collection with a thrilling and refreshing red dial.
The dial was ordered by the first owner after purchasing his 14790 with a grey dial.
