"An avant-garde formulation of a horological classic: diamonds cascade randomly across dial, bezel and bracelet, like waves on a sandy shore."
Offered for sale is a Swiss Made Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, a stunning 18k white gold ladies' watch decorated with numerous diamonds all around the case, dial and bracelet. The 33mm case flows seamlessly into the solid gold bracelet, and is set with 429 brilliant cut diamonds (approximately 2.56 carats) laid out in a random pattern. The dial itself is also crafted from solid gold and is decorated with 112 diamonds (about 0.67 carats). White gold Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating indicate the time, and a date window can be found on the 3 O'Clock position. All of this is protected by a sapphire crystal with glareproof coating. The typical hexagonal crown is original, and bears the AP logo.
Powering the watch is a high grade Audemars Piguet Calibre 2713 Quartz movement: mechanical excellence combined with quartz brings superior accuracy. The movement is working accurately and keeping perfect time. The screwed down case back ensures that the watch is water resistant up to 50m.
The watch is sold as pre-worn, however it was well cared for by its previous owner. You will find some minor marks to the case and bracelet, but no coarse damage. There are very minor scratches to the sapphire crystal, only visible when closely inspecting the watch. All diamonds are still securely in place. It comes complete with its full box set and papers: warranty card with serial number and warranty number (blurred in the pictures for safety), warranty booklet and instructional booklet. The original retail price of EUR 74.700 can still be found on the original price tag.
Please be aware that the current maximum wrist circumference is about 17cm or 6.7 inches. All bracelet links are currently fitted to the watch, with no spare bracelet links in the box. The size of the bracelet can easily be decreased by removing links, but to increase it past the above maximum, extra links will have to be sourced either online or at an AP retailer.
