Celebrations for Royal Oak 50th anniversary

Fifty years on, the Royal Oak has more than 500 different sizes and materials models. Celebrities including Serena Williams, Jay Z, and Ashely Olsen all wear different versions, proving its popularity after 50 years. Because of its size, it coined the nickname “The Big Mac,” Soon after, other designers joined the bandwagon, creating their versions of the luxury steel sports fake watch.
After that, many Royal Oak Jumbo watches were launched, in 39 mm cases, most with the self-winding caliber 2121. These include the Jubilee, limited to 1,000 pieces to mark the model’s 20th anniversary, and the 15202ST model, redesigned for the ruby anniversary.
Jacqueline Dimier joined Audemars Piguet in 1975 and was asked to create the first female Royal Oak model. At the time, petite watches with fancy stones were all the rage, but she reduced the size of the Royal Oak and its movement to create a more feminine design. She became the brand’s head of strategy for nearly 25 years.  40ee37403f06a37689d6578862e05ff7-600x400 9596fc64f2d9bb3370f9b4e5cf07148b-600x400
While many Oak replica watches were 39mm, there were a few other variations. Fifteen thousand three hundred had a thick case to accommodate the 3120 movements and a previously unseen seconds hand and a solid strap. It was discontinued in 2012 but replaced by two other models – the 15400’s 41mm case was upgraded to a 15500 with a superb power reserve, while the 15450’s 37mm topic was upgraded to a 15550. the large AP logo at midnight on the previous model was also replaced.
After the futuristic creations of the previous decade, the Royal Oak entered a new phase in 2010. the Jumbo 15202 unleashes a dial faithful to that of 1972. It has a small tapisserie dial and Bleu Nuit colors. The 41 mm dial of the number 15400 strengthens the 2014 collection, while the following years are marked by a revival of bimetallic variants not seen since the 80s. The watch is becoming more and more popular now.
