Originally, the titanium salmon dial Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar (ref. 26615TI.OO.1220TI.01) was only available in Japan but now Audemars Piguet have released just 150 units into the global market.
The 41mm watch features a titanium case and glareproofed sapphire crystal on the front and back. The dial itself is a unique salmon colour and has a “Grande Tapisserie” pattern. The hour markers are white gold, and the hands feature a luminescent coating.
The dial can be a bit busy with four complications. These include a moon phase indicator, week indicator, and a full perpetual calendar.
It’s a classy and stylish watch that does make itself stand out with the salmon dial. It does feature the classic geometry of a Royal Oak but with the titanium bracelet the case doesn’t seem as cumbersome and large. If that isn’t your thing and you enjoy the big watch look, this might not scratch that itch, despite it being quite large. It just doesn’t make as large a statement in regard to its size due to the bracelet.
These are priced at $85,100 USD ($115,500 AUD) and are available now by appointment.
