Gerald Genta presented his design for the Royal Oak to Audemars Piguet in 1970 and ever since it has become an iconic model drawing its inspiration from a classic diver's helmet with the characteristics of an octagonal bezel secured by eight gold screws. This present lot is a limited edition which pays tribute to the Société Nautique de Genéve's sailing team 'Alinghi', the first European team to win the America's Cup in 2003 (Auckland) and again in 2007 (Valencia).

International buyers please be advised that straps made of material derived from endangered or otherwise protected species (i.e. alligator and crocodile) are not sold with the watches and are for display purposes only. We reserve the right to remove these straps prior to shipping.
