Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Skeleton 37mm: Discover the new gold version
Since its creation in 1972, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak has been an undisputed icon of Swiss watchmaking, a symbol of luxury and innovation. With its octagonal case and integrated bracelet, this revolutionary watch redefined the standards of luxury watchmaking.
In 2024, Audemars Piguet continues to surprise with two new Royal Oak Double Balance Skeleton 37mm gold models. These new products combine the timeless elegance of gold with an exceptional technical innovation: the double balance.
The innovation of the double balance
The double balance is a major technological advancement that improves the precision and stability of mechanical watches. This innovation consists of integrating two balance wheels mounted on the same axis, working in perfect harmony to reduce rate deviations. Audemars Piguet was one of the first companies to adopt this technology, thus ensuring exceptional timekeeping performance.
Precision is at the heart of this innovation. By stabilizing the movement, the double balance reduces the influence of external disturbances, guaranteeing greater precision. This advancement is particularly important for haute horlogerie enthusiasts who seek both beauty and precision in their timepieces.
Skeleton design
The skeletonized or openworked design is another distinctive feature of this watch. This design brings the complex mechanism to the fore, highlighting the watch’s inner beauty. The transparency provided by this design allows you to admire the movement in motion, the harmonious dance of gears and springs.
The choice of skeletonization is not just for aesthetics. It also proves the technical excellence of Audemars Piguet’s watchmakers, who are able to create movements that are not only functional but also visually appealing. Each movement is meticulously crafted and finished by hand, transforming each watch into a unique work of art.
New Royal Oak Gold Versions
In 2024, Audemars Piguet launches two new gold versions of the Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked 37mm: one in white gold and the other in rose gold. These precious materials add an air of luxury and elegance to this already extraordinary watch.
White gold: The white gold version presents a modern and sophisticated aesthetic. The understated sheen of white gold highlights the skeletonized design, creating a subtle contrast to the intricate visible movement.
Rose gold: The rose gold version brings warmth and timeless elegance. The warm hue of rose gold highlights the details of the skeletonized movement, presenting a rich and luxurious aesthetic.
These new gold versions are not only beautiful to look at, they are also very beautiful. They also reflect the precision and craftsmanship of Audemars Piguet. Each watch is the result of hundreds of hours of work from design to final assembly.
