Designed in one night by Gérald Genta, the first Royal Oak model was presented in 1972 at the Basel Fair, after two years of development. This extraordinary watch elevated steel to a new status. By introducing the notion of "casual chic", it opened a chapter in the history of Audemars Piguet and Haute Horlogerie. Between 1972 and 1976, the Royal Oak 5402 was the only Royal Oak produced by Audemars Piguet, available in a single material and with a single dial. In four years, this radical model made its mark on the world before being rolled out from 1976 onwards in one of the most prolific collections in watchmaking history. This watch is a must-have for any serious watch enthusiast or collector.
Be advised, the dial has some patina signs which are normal due to its age. The watch itself has couple minor scuffs that can be polished off at your request. Sale comes with the original archive Audemars Piguet papers stated as original papers.
