Catalogue Essay
The Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked was first introduced with the 41mm reference 15407 in 2016. The present pink gold reference 15467 was launched in 2018 with a smaller 37mm case, and it is arguably one of the most desirable and wearable iterations.

The automatic calibre 3132 is simply stunning. Showcased in full through an anti-reflective sapphire crystal on the dial and via the transparent case back, the skeletonized movement is tastefully and meticulously decorated with rhodium-toned bridges that are complemented by a glorious golden balance bridge. Equipped with the double balance wheel system which creates an oscillator with more mass that can ensure great stability, the beauty of the movement is paired with formidable chronometric performance.

The pink gold case and integrated bracelet are exceptionally finished with their bevelled and polished edges and wears comfortably on the wrist. Offered in “like new” condition, the present example is virtually unworn, and it is complete with its original warranty and box. The rare opportunity to obtain this mesmerising horological masterpiece should not be missed by the discerning collector.

Audemars Piguet

Swiss | 1881
A specialist in the manufacture of complications since it was established in 1881, Audemars Piguet never ceases to impress with a rich history of creating bold, even audacious, timepieces underpinned by traditional watchmaking at its finest. This Le Brassus-based Swiss manufacturer is one of only two major manufacturers still owned by the founding family. Since its earliest days, AP is considered a leader in the field of minute repeaters and grande complication pocket and wristwatches. The brand is devoted to preserving the history of watchmaking in the Vallée de Joux, showcased at their superb museum in Le Brassus.
Today, the brand is best known for its Royal Oak models, a revolutionary luxury sports watch launched in 1972. Other key models include early minute repeating wristwatches, vintage chronograph wristwatches, such as the oversized reference 5020, perpetual calendar watches and the Royal Oak Offshore, first introduced in 1993.
