AP is contributing to Only Watch 2023 with this Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked Only Watch Edition. It is the 4th time Audemars Piguet participates, and this model of the Royal Oak is a sparkling open-worked ceramic automatic. The design was launched in 2022 as a part of the Royal Oak’s 50th anniversary celebration.
The Only Watch 2023 version comes in a 41-millimeter white ceramic case with a touch of blue on the main plate and bridges. Which creates a harmonious contrast with the rhodium-toned balance wheel, barrel and tourbillon. The blue inner bezel and white gold hour-markers and hands are both filled with super-luminova. A special oscillating weight in 22-carat gold has also been colored with the same blue and rhodium tones for a sleek look. This can be seen through its white ceramic case back with glare proof sapphire crystal.
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked Only Watch Edition is one of AP’s most admirable modern tourbillons
In the center of the watch beats the automatic AP caliber 2972 which was also first presented during the 50th anniversary of the Royal Oak in 2022. It comes with a central rotor with a flying tourbillon. This barrel delivers a power reserve of 65 hours.
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Openworked Only Watch Edition comes on a white ceramic bracelet with AP folding clasp in blackened stainless steel.
