Catalogue Essay
Introduced in 2006, the pink gold reference 15202 Royal Oak was an instant success. It retained the elegant, ultra-slim profile of the original “Jumbo” ref. 5402 using the celebrated automatic caliber 2121 created in 1970 as a derivative of the JLC-based caliber 2120. The aperture-type date display raised the movement thickness to 3.05 mm, making it the world's thinnest mechanical automatic movement with a central rotor and date at the time. From 1972 and until its replacement by the caliber 7121 in 2022, the caliber 2121 has been one of the most essential attributes of the Royal Oak "Jumbo" model.
Fitted with a deep blue petite tapisserie dial, the dark tones cast a striking contrast to the luxurious pink gold case and bracelet. The present example is preserved in virtually brand new condition, with protective stickers and plastic casing present to the case and bracelet. It is furthermore offered here as a full set.
