The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak was published in 1972 and celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in 2022. Earlier this year, Audemars Piguet automatically updated the specific model specifications of the Royal Oak. The design of the watch case remains stable. The 1st Royaloak Royal Oak main product watch Ref. 5402sT, the watch belt gradually thinning situation, but also enhanced the production processing manufacturing difficulty. Zunda Master and AP have a deep connection. As early as the twentieth century fifty years, he designed watches for AP. From the end of the 1960s to the beginning of the 1970s, the relationship between the two parties reached its peak. The Royal Oak came out of this phase, and it was the work of Zunda, who spent one night designing and conceptualizing it. It's really marvelous today.
In those days it was equipped with the super-book automatic chain movement Calibre 2121, the same movement that 15202 has been using since. Crucially the watch's thirty-nine mm form factor was so large (the aesthetic of those days) that it was shortened to Jumbo (giant), the meaning of the name still preserved. There was another crucial feature on the dashboard - the classic two needle design. This is why the 15202, which was particularly popular before, is felt to be the original Royal Oak. At the very beginning of the commemoration of the Royal Oak's fiftieth anniversary, it was only natural that its successor would be the 16202, a new generation of Royal Oak staples with a diameter of thirty-seven millimeters that will utilize the Calibre 5900, a new design and development by the first-rate brand. This fully automatic chain movement features hour, minute, second, and date time display information. Compared to its predecessor, the Calibre 3120, the new movement is lighter, has a more frequent balance and a power reserve of sixty hours. The upgraded version of the movement does not only drive a new high level of sophistication. These are the highlights of the complete version upgrade of the 50th anniversary watch.
