Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Mini

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Mini

The Royal Oak, in its most compact form. The size doesn't really matter when a design is such a classic like this one.

At 26mm, this stainless steel example retains the defining features of one of watchmaking’s most recognisable designs: the octagonal bezel, exposed screws and integrated bracelet. The blue dial adds a subtle touch of colour without taking away from the clean, architectural lines.

When the Royal Oak was introduced in 1972, using steel for a luxury sports watch challenged the conventions of the time. Its smaller variations brought that same design language to a different scale. However, they made way less of these mini Royal Oaks, which is exactly the reason why collectors love them.

Finding the mini Royal Oaks are getting harder every day, however finding them in a excellent condition like this one makes it special. It was a pleasure to source this one for our client!
