ROYAL OAK MODEL, REF. 26615TI, CIRCA 2020

This exciting and extremely beautiful new titanium Royal Oak perpetual calendar with salmon Grande Tapisserie dial was released in December 2020 in a limited edition of 300 pieces, the first 150 were only available exclusively in Japan. One hundred of these were allocated to the highly prestigious retailer Yoshida and the other 50 pieces were divided among select AP outlets in Japan.
The present watch is, to the best of our knowledge, the first example of this model ever to be offered at international auction.
The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar combines two of the great icons of Audemars Piguet’s heritage, the Royal Oak model and the perpetual calendar complication. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement for the titanium Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar is the ultra-thin automatic Calibre 5134 with 40-hour power reserve. It features the date, day, month, week number, leap year, 52-week indicator and a moon phase composed of a lasered disc on an aventurine background. The dial is the lovely and distinctive salmon ‘Grande Tapisserie’ also with salmon subsidiaries which completes this visually stunning and complicated Royal Oak.
