  • 圖錄文章

    This year marks the important event of the Royal Oak being half a century old, and collectors have reflected on the importance of commemorating one of the most exciting, charming and cherished models the firm has ever introduced.

    First introduced as a time only luxury sports watch in steel with an integrated bracelet in 1972, the ingenious design was of the great and late Gerald Genta. An unusual release at the time during the peak of the quartz crisis, it commanded a higher price than a gold watch. However, the firm’s vision behind Genta’s ingenuity would prevail soon to come as the true pioneers behind the boom of the luxury sports wristwatch.

    The first production of Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar was launched in 1984. With the forward-thinking approach from the Managing Director George Golay fitting the thin workhorse caliber 2120/2800 into the Royal Oak case, making it one of the world thinnest automatic perpetual calendar watch.

    The very first of them that was serially produced was the ref. 25554 and was made only in scarce quantities an estimated 279 examples across all metals including yellow gold, stainless steel and platinum.

    The present example Audemars Piguet Royal Oak ref. 25554BA with a MK I dial is one of the earliest examples to appear at auction featuring a C19 serial case with batch no. 249. Its dial of the earliest featuring three gold dotted indexes at 3, 9 and 12 o’clock and its small signature under the moon phase, it is further blessed with its state of preservation, boasting a crisp case with defined edges and an attractive layer of patina on the case indicating its prolonged period of inactivity.
