Royal Oak 50th Anniversary Limited Edition Collection

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak: the birth of an icon

April 15, 1972. The day on which Georges Golay, Audemars Piguet boss at the time, gave the world a watch that would bear such impact on the universe of horology that 50 years on, it remains one of the most desirable timepieces to ever grace human consciousness. We speak of course of the Royal Oak, designed by the inimitable, Gerald Genta, which at the point of its launch bore the price tag of a Jaguar XJ6. 3,750 Swiss francs to be precise, and precisely unheard of for a time-only watch in stainless steel.

It is this audacity that set the watch on a trajectory to become an irrefutable icon and remain an object of desire for generations to come. 50 years marks a significant milestone. One that deserves celebrations of the highest order, but not just to celebrate the past. Speaking at a presentation session ahead of the launch today, Michael Friedman, Audemars Piguet’s Head of Complications shared, “I think the key is that we’re celebrating the 50th anniversary by honoring the past but without a doubt we’ve planted seeds for the future as well. This anniversary year is [about] looking ahead as much as looking behind and we’re going to see these touch points throughout the whole collection.”

The vision behind the Royal Oak 50th anniversary limited edition

On this note, Friedman was asked by the crowd in Singapore, on the challenges at hand in creating and re-envisioning the Royal Oak in 2022, in a manner that would befit the occasion. To this he answered, “The story of the Royal Oak is this unto itself. Keep in mind the second version of the Royal Oak, in 1976, was a woman’s watch, 29mm. We reduced the size for the second version already. So, the whole journey of the Royal Oak has been the transition of a watch model into an established language within the field of watchmaking. By 1984, we had complications on the Royal Oak. Women’s in 76, precious materials in 77, complications in 84. We’re fortunate in the sense that those who preceded us did a wonderful job already sending us on this trajectory of opening up with this model. The person whom [we] owe so much credit to that, of course, Gerald Genta, the designer, but his successor as well, Jacqueline Dimier. And we’ve done so many interpretations, including those ones that I mentioned well into the 90s.

“So we feel that weight our shoulders to keep this trajectory moving forward. And to make sure that we’re honoring and respecting all of that work done. And this is where those touch points came in on the finishing on the dial details. The form language remains pure to the original, but they’re just small advancements, in small tweaks on the classic side, on the let’s say, the existing side. Having said that, a new generation of movements, as with the 7121. So, the 2121, it’s retired. New generation, four hertz calibre, incredibly reliable, strong, amazing power reserve, most importantly, exquisite finishing. So even that classic, it’s been modernized. And the new Openworked Selfwinding Tourbillon, which is really taking openworking and tourbillons into the future. So those two models really summarize where the effort has been. Respecting and honoring the original with a few enhancements, as well as making sure we add new chapters to this ongoing story.”

With the stage set, onward to go to discover all of the Royal Oaks being launched to kick off its 50th anniversary celebration. Important to remember that this is only the start of the celebration, the next big date that Friedman and Audemars Piguet’s CEO, François-Henry Bennahmias kept eluding to during the presentation was that of the 15th of April 2022.

Royal Oak from ref 15202 to ref 16202

We start off with the biggest talking point. The 15202, which in 2000 marked a turning point in the “Jumbo” history and Royal Oak’s entrance into the third millennium, is now being retired to make way for the 16202.

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary, the 16202 is being announced in four metals and dial colors. 18-carat pink gold with a smoked grey dial, 18-carat yellow gold with a smoke yellow-gold dial, 950 platinum with a sunburst based smoked green dial and, lastly, a tribute to the very original Royal Oak, in stainless steel with the “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” dial, the very same shade of blue that was developed by Geneva-based dial maker Stern Frêres for the 5402.

Back then the color was obtained by immersing each dial in a galvanic bath of a specific formulation for a specific time and at a specific temperature to order to obtain this specific color. A thin layer of varnish mixed with a few drops of black colour (n° 50) was then applied onto the dial to protect it. The term “nuage” refers to the cloud effect the drop of black creates when it enters the protective liquid varnish. Today, the “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50″ hue is achieved in a more reliable method by PVD, which ensures consistent coloration.

The Royal Oak Jumbo says goodbye to calibre 2121

Discussing the subtle design enhancements that Friedman makes, “The bevels adorning the top and the bottom of the case have been enlarged to enhance the play of light between the satin-finished and polished surfaces, while bestowing the watch with a slender aesthetic. For its part, the caseback has been slightly more integrated into the case middle to sit more comfortably on the wrist.

“To accentuate the finesse of the new case design, the integrated bracelet’s first four links are now trapezoid in shape and no longer parallel. This more pronounced decrease in thickness brings forward the bracelet’s taper for more visual appeal. Furthermore, the links are thinner throughout the bracelet, and therefore lighter, offering added comfort and optimum ergonomics. First introduced on Royal Oak models in gold a few years back, this evolved aesthetic appears for the first time on stainless steel and titanium references.”

But we cannot finish the discussion around the 2022 Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin without bidding adieu to the Calibre 2121, the thinnest automatic movement with central rotor and date indication of its time (3.05 mm) first introduced on the Royal Oak in 1972, which Audemars Piguet decided to retire at the end of 2021. In its place the maison has announced the next generation movement that will bear the responsibility of powering the new “Jumbo”, the calibre 7121.

Shares, Lucas Raggi, Research & Development Director at Audemars Piguet, “Calibre 7121 has been constructed with the expertise of our engineers and watchmakers, specialised in both simple and complicated mechanisms. This cross-department collaboration resulted in the creation of a robust and powerful extra-thin selfwinding movement that seamlessly fits in the slender architecture of the Royal Oak ‘Jumbo’ case, paving the way for a new generation of in-house AP movements.”

Comparing the 7121 with the 2121 we have a movement that now has frequency of 4Hz, up from 2.75Hz, a power reserve that clocks in a minimum of 55 hours, up from 40 hours and at long last, a quick set date. The higher frequency, by virtue of theory suggests that the 7121 will keep better time, simply because the higher oscillation rate divides time into smaller spans, giving rise to a higher resolution time measurement.

The reason why Raggi goes on to suggest that the new movement is more robust in construction, has to do with implementations such as the full traversing bridge on the balance wheel and even a traversing bridge over the barrel, ensuring ultimate stability. Then there is the balance wheel itself, which is fitted with inertia blocks that have been directly inserted within the wheel to avoid unnecessary friction.

The last bit of detail on the 7121, which we will see on all executions of the Royal Oak in 2022, is the dedicated anniversary openworked oscillating weight in 22-carat gold, which features the “50 years” logo and the engraved Audemars Piguet signature. For the anniversary year, the 22-carat gold oscillating weights will be color matched to the case material.

Where the 16202 honors the past, here’s where Audemars Piguet shows us the seeds planted to craft the Royal Oak’s future. This is the superb: Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked. The maison had unveiled the first selfwinding Royal Oak with a flying tourbillon in November of 2020. And now the Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon has been transformed into the first ever, Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked.

The detailing on the skeleton movement evokes every emotion you might put into words that has to do with the idea of the future. There is a sense of three-dimensionality that not only shows off the intricacies of the openwork design but a contemporary spirit of strength and audacity similar to that which Audemars Piguet gave us with the 5402, in 1972.

The movement powering the watch is the selfwinding 2972, an evolution of the Calibre 2950 that debuted as part of the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet collection in 2019 and later the Royal Oak with a flying tourbillon in late 2020. And as part of the 50th anniversary launches, the 2972 bears the special rotor for the occasion. This special rotor is also being added to the Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon, for the year of 2022.

Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin Openworked / 39mm

For the occasion of the 50th anniversary, the “Jumbo” is also getting a new skeleton iteration with the freshly baked Calibre 7124. As opposed to the  Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked, the skeletonised design on the “Jumbo” Extra-Thin Openworked seems to pay greater homage to a more traditional sense of aesthetics.

Running at a frequency of 4Hz the Calibre 7124 is possibly a direct derivative of the 7121, sans the complete dial and baseplate, of course. The calibre does however seem to boast a higher power reserve at a 57-hour minimum (the 7121 boasts 55 hours).

Lastly, and again, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary, Audemars Piguet will be launching a refreshed line-up of selfwinding hour, minute, second and date models in 37 mm as well as new 38 and 41 mm selfwinding chronographs. These will be launched over course of the year. All of these continue on the subtle refinements that were earlier discussed by Friedman, in a way that does not in any way or form go against Genta’s original design. Most of these are as well fitted with the dedicated Royal Oak “50-years” rotor, save for the 38mm chronographs with closed casebacks.

The other more obvious update made to this line up is the applied gold Audemars Piguet signature at 12 o’clock which replaces the previous applied AP monogram and the printed “AUDEMARS PIGUET”. The appliqué logo is produced by means of a chemical process, somewhat like 3D printing, known as galvanic growth. But here’s the catch, each letter is in fact, individually produced and then connected with links no thicker than the cross section of a human hair and thereafter is placed on the dial by hand with tiny legs that aren’t readily visible to the naked eye. Now imagine having to develop a process in which this fully spelt out logo could be replicated in the various sizes necessary for the different sized Royal Oaks on offer.

The minute track on these Royal Oaks, which was in the past printed on a flat surface on the perimeter of the Tapisserie dial, is now printed directly onto the Tapisserie pattern of all Royal Oak selfwinding hour, minute, second and date models.

Movement wise, Audemars Piguet has replaced the Calibre 3120 with a the 4Hz Calibre 5900, which will be powering the Royal Oak references in 37mm. The 5900 is thinner at 3.9 mm (vs 4.26 mm) and boasts 60 hours of power reserve.

Here at long last we have come to end of all of the Royal Oaks being launched today. As mentioned before, Audemars Piguet has said that 2022 is to be a year of celebrations on the occasion of the 50th anniversary and that this is not a simple one-off wave of novelties, but rather the beginning of much more to come on April 15, and beyond.
