Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Automatic Blue Tapisserie Steel

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Automatic in blue is the definitive icon of modern luxury watchmaking. Born in 1972 from Gerald Genta's revolutionary design, its signature octagonal bezel with 8 exposed screws and the electric blue "Petite Tapisserie" dial have become the most recognised combination in haute horlogerie.

• Case: Brushed & polished stainless steel, octagonal bezel with 8 screws
• Dial: Blue "Petite Tapisserie" with applied silver baton hour markers
• Complications: Date at 3 o'clock
• Movement: Automatic self-winding calibre
• Bracelet: Integrated stainless steel "Bracelet Royale"

The blue Royal Oak — the watch that defined the luxury sports category and still leads it today.
