Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15500ST | 41mm | Silver Tapisserie | Steel

A Legend Born from Audacity

In 1972, Gérald Genta sketched a future no one expected: a powerful steel timepiece priced like precious metal. The Royal Oak shattered the codes of haute horlogerie, transforming utility into luxury and inaugurating the era of the luxury sports watch. Today, its audacious spirit resonates as strongly as ever.

The Architecture of a Revolution

• Reference Number: 15500ST.OO.1220ST.02
• The Octagonal Bezel with 8 Hexagonal Screws: A bold, exposed geometry that redefined elegance through industrial honesty.
• The Integrated Tapering Bracelet: Seamlessly flowing steel links that fuse case and wrist into one architectural line.
• The ‘Tapisserie’ Dial: Silver-toned, with the signature geometric texture that gives depth, dynamism, and instant recognition.
• Case Material and Diameter: Stainless steel, 41 mm.
• Calibre: Automatic selfwinding manufacture movement.

Launching an oversized steel icon at the height of the quartz crisis was a masterstroke of courage. Audemars Piguet bet on vision over fashion—and secured the future of modern watchmaking in the process.

More Than a Watch, A Statement
