Royal Oak Chronograph

A disruptive and downright revolutionary timepiece, the Royal Oak is immediately recognizable thanks to its state-of-the-art engineered strongbox case, octagonal bezel secured by eight hexagonal screws, visible water resistance gaskets, dials adorned with exclusive engine-turned “Grande Tapisserie” motif. The most rugged sports performer in the audemars piguet family, appears as a stunning haute joaillerie model for the first time since its debut in 1997.
