Description

The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar combines yellow gold with the most classic complication in all of watchmaking. Day, date, month, astronomical moon, with the week of the year displayed on the dial’s outer chapter ring and the essential leap year indication hold pride of place on the Grande Tapisserie" decorated dial. The new lighter blue of the dial harmonises beautifully with the warm yellow of the gold case, hour-markers and luminescent hands. Housed in an assertively sized 41 mm yellow gold case, the selfwinding watch’s new larger calibre 5134 is fully visible through the glareproofed sapphire crystal caseback.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
