SIHH 2019: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Extra-Thin “Jumbo” With Salmon Dial
In 18k white gold.The Royal Oak Extra-Thin “Jumbo” with a pink gold-toned dial is a limited production model that’s a nod to a limited edition made for the 20th anniversary of the Royal Oak in 1992.
While the watch from 25 years ago was stainless steel, the new Royal Oak Extra-Thin is 18k white gold. Only used infrequently for the Royal Oak “Jumbo”, the metal is found only on a handful of Royal Oak ref. 5402 watches of the 1980s.
The dial on the new edition is salmon, but decorated with the familiar Petite Tapisserie guilloche that’s standard for the Royal Oak. Notably, the date disc is also finished with a pink gold tone to match the dial. The hands and hour markers are solid white gold.
The case and bracelet are 18k white gold, but with dimensions identical to the standard model. It’s 39mm in diameter and rated to 50m, with the cal. 2121 inside.
