Audemars Piguet’s celebrated Royal Oak collection has become synonymous with this prestigious brand over the years – characterised by an octagonal bezel secured with eight hexagonal screws, and a lithe bracelet that ensures wrist mobility.

Together with master-jewellers of Le Brassus, Audemars Piguet presents two new interpretations of the Lady Royal Oak and Royal Oak Offshore in 18-carat white gold, embellished with baguette-cut diamonds painstakingly arranged to attain a seamless surface of diamonds.

For women, the Lady Royal Oak houses a quartz movement with exquisite hand-finished movement parts, 520 baguette-cut diamonds (totalling approximately 37.86 carats), and a rose-cut diamond for its crown.

On the other hand, the Royal Oak Offshore for men sports a self-winding calibre, bevelled and rhodium-plated movement parts, and 590 baguette-cut diamonds (totalling approximately 55.85 carats). Most notably, the bracelets of both models retain the aesthetics of the Royal Oak bracelet with strategically positioned stones amidst a complex combination of links and pins. Both baguette-cut diamond models are exclusively made to order.
