  Royal Oak yellow gold bracelet watch, circa 1990.
  Estimate €3,000–5,000

  Developed during the quartz crisis which strongly hit the Swiss watch industry in the late 1960s and beginning of the 1970s, the Royal Oak revolutionized the industry. It was an all-purpose watch that was the perfect fit for different occasions ranging from daily use to formal occasions.
