The Royal Oak was an industry revelation on its release in 1972, becoming the first luxury steel sports watch—with a luxury price to match. Probably Gerald Genta’s most famous watch design, it stood in stark contrast to other watches owing to its octagonal bezel and robust integrated bracelet, one of the most distinctive ever designed. This superb model in classic stainless steel combines that iconic design and a prestigious traditional complication. First released in 2015, this Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar features the signature Royal Oak tapisserie dial, giving it plenty of depth and texture, together with white gold hands and hour markers with luminescent coating. Plus, being a perpetual calendar, it displays the week, day, date, month and indicates a leap-year—all of which are displayed across three sub dials. A fourth sub dial displays a moonphase. Run on the extra-thin AP calibre 5134, this self-winding movement stores a hardy 40-hour power reserve. This is a rare chance to own a beloved timepiece which remains close to the original, just with some added complications.
