*Mint* 2022 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Oak 18K RG (Ref. 15510OR) Blue Dial W/ Full Set

Designed by the legendary Gerald Genta in 1972, the original Royal Oak ref. 5402 redefined the industry as the most expensive steel watch of its time. Bold in both size and concept, it challenged traditional design norms by introducing a luxury sports watch in steel. The gamble paid off, cementing the Royal Oak as an icon–celebrated for its balance of utility and timeless design, with its signature mix of brushed and polished surfaces, sharp angles, and unmistakable octagonal bezel.

A modern expression of Audemars Piguet’s most iconic design, the Royal Oak Ref. 15510OR brings together heritage aesthetics with contemporary execution. Crafted in full 18K pink gold, the 41mm case retains the unmistakable Royal Oak silhouette while reflecting the latest evolution of the model.

The dial features the classic “Grande Tapisserie” pattern in the storied “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” tone, a direct nod to the original 1972 Royal Oak. Powering the watch is the in-house Calibre 4302 automatic movement, offering a 70-hour power reserve and beautifully finished architecture visible through the sapphire caseback.

Finished with a blue alligator strap, an uncommon configuration for this reference, this example balances sport and refinement with ease. A compelling modern Royal Oak with strong ties to its roots, presented here in mint condition with its full set.
