Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 39mm, 15300ST.OO.1220ST.03

We are proud to present this iconic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak for sale in mint condition. 

In 1971 the famous watch designer Gerald Genta was set the challenge to design a stainless steel sports watch for the Italian markets which were suitable for any occasion, with the caveat being it was required for the following morning. Come morning Gerald had completed his designs for the Royal Oak, which he later articulates as 'the masterpiece of his career'. Often considered to be the first luxury sports watch, the Royal Oak was first introduced in 1972, at none other than the Baselworld watch fair. The watch was inspired by the portholes found on boats and features exposed screw heads, unique case design and an integral stainless steel link bracelet.

This iteration of the famed Royal Oak, reference 15300ST.OO.1220ST.03 was first released in 2005 and was the first non-complication Royal Oak to feature an in-house movement. It comes set in a versatile 39mm stainless steel case with iconic integrated link bracelet and classic butterfly folding clasp. The classic black 'Grande Tapisserie' dial features applied white gold edged hour-markers and matching hands with luminescent inlay, as well as a date aperture at 3 o'clock. These details are protected by a flat sapphire crystal and powered by the automatic calibre 3120 which boasts a 60 hour power reserve and can be viewed through a sapphire crystal exhibition caseback. Lastly, its 10atm (100m/330ft) water resistance is ensured by its screwdown crown. 

Originally produced in circa 2005 and is supplied in mint condition following a full service with Audemars Piguet in March 2024. Supplied with its original inner and outer boxes, instruction booklet, swing tag, service warranty documentation and international warranty booklet.

This watch benefits from the coverage of its Audemars Piguet service warranty until March 2026.
