The Lady Royal Oak reference 8638 was launched in 1976, even before the legendary model 5402. As the first feminine Royal Oak, it raised the question of gender in watchmaking and offered a new take of the collection. Designed by Jacqueline Dimier, it shifted the approach and played to the Royal Oak’s strong character, adapting its handsome proportions to obtain a lighter, sleeker look.
