Audemars Piguet launched the famous Royal Oak in the early 1970s, revolutionising the luxury watch industry in the face of the quartz crisis. Gérald Genta designed this iconic shape, inspired by a diving-suit helmet, to feature a fully integrated bracelet: a first of its kind. Maintaining all the original lines of Genta's 1972 masterpiece, this 25402, which was the new reference number for the 5402, in stainless steel and yellow gold has clearly been extremely well cared for over the years and present crisp edges. The colour scheme of this watch works still today as perfectly as it did when it first left the manufacture. The contrast of the steel and the gold is echoed by the dial and adds an irresistible vintage feel to the masculine design.
While the first stainless steel models were divided into four alpha-numerical series from A-D, the yellow gold and two-tone versions were first launched in 1977 and were numbered simply from one.
This piece represents the opportunity to acquire an example of the iconic model in attractive overall condition with an extra twist of style.
