The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 56175 is a most enjoyable piece to wear. Its ultra-thin case and contained diameter bring an extra touch of sophistication while preserving the sport and masculine aspects of the illustrious design. Made in different metal combinations, the model was first introduced around 1990 and perfectly embodies the unsurpassed charm of the creations of that time.

This present lot is apart from the very vast majority of the examples that have survived as it is adorned by an exceptionally attractive tropical dial. Tropical dials can only be found on a tiny fraction of the production. While many of them are uneven, unattractive and could sometimes be considered more as a damage than a charming asset, this particular dial has gained a marvelous caramel tone.

It captures the light in a most beautiful way, offering its owner endless combinations of reflections that will provide him renewed pleasure.
