Lavishly embellished with diamonds on the bezel and dial, along with emerald-set numerals, this Royal Oak is a superlative example. Displaying hallmarks on the caseback along with crisp and visible bevels, it is a luxurious and eye-catching variant of the iconic Royal Oak model we know so well today. White metal Royal Oaks are in general rarer than their yellow gold counterparts, making this timepiece even more collectible.
Displaying a 33.5mm case, it is the perfect case size for both men and women who want a slightly more discreet version of the classic Royal Oak model. With the iconic diamond-set octagonal case and white gold bracelet, the timepiece makes a statement on the wrist. Moreover, the timepiece houses an automatic movement, which is rare as diamond embellished Royal Oaks usually housed quartz movements. The timepiece is furthermore accompanied by the Audemars Piguet Extrait de Registre confirming production of the present watch in May 26, 2003.
