The collection
The 1972 steel sports watch that set the template for the integrated bracelet
The Royal Oak arrived in 1972, widely credited as the first luxury sports watch in steel, drawn by Gérald Genta around an octagonal bezel held down by eight visible screws. Everything else follows from that: the bracelet integrated into the case and tapering to the clasp, the Tapisserie dial on most references, the hand-finished play of brushed tops against polished bevels. The line now runs from simple time and date up to perpetual calendars and open-worked pieces.
core 34 to 41 mm, Offshore and Concept larger
For the buyer who wants one watch that sits under a cuff on Monday and over a sleeve on Saturday, and who cares about finishing more than size.
