Specialist note
Offered for the first time at international auction by an important private collector, this superb Audemars Piguet reference 15202BC in 18k white gold is simply breathtaking. Attractive as it is rare, the watch is in 'like' new overall condition.
The beauty of the salmon coloured dial and 39 mm. diam. white gold case is hard to beat and is certainly one of the most successful and covetable colour combinations ever produced for the Royal Oak range.
An iconic model of the Audemars Piguet Manufacture, the Royal Oak reference 15202BC can be considered as part of the most collectible luxury sport timepieces. Launched in 1972 and designed by the widely acclaimed Gérald Genta, the Royal Oak is without a doubt Audemars Piguet’s most important and iconic wristwatch ever created. A game-changer for the luxury watch industry, the stainless steel version was priced at CHF3,650, above many gold watches due mainly to its complex case structure and a handmade bracelet with links of decreasing sizes.
