Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph is one of the most requested pieces at Avi & Co., and for fair reason. It was introduced as a bold evolution of the original 1972 Royal Oak. This chronograph version deftly fuses sportiness and flair in a way few watches ever have. The first Royal Oak was unveiled at Baselworld in 1972. At that time, it was priced at $3,772. That price tag was more than a solid gold Patek Philippe and several times the cost of a Rolex Submariner. And it was made of steel. With this creation, Audemars Piguet changed the rules of luxury watchmaking.
