Audemars Piguet Presents the Sleek 2019 Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked Black Ceramic
A sequel to the 2017 release.
Following a 2017 release, Audemars Piguet has now put together an updated openworked take on its sleek Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Black Ceramic model.
The 2019 iteration features a sleek 41 mm x 9.9 mm black ceramic case accented by intricate satin-brushing all over. Highlighting the clean design of the watch are polished beveled edges on the case, bezel, case back and bracelet.
Underneath the sapphire crystal dial found on the watch is Audemars Piguet’s in-house movement caliber 5135, a skeletonized take on the caliber 5134. The movement features a skeletonized rose gold oscillating weight that beats at a frequency of 2.75Hz, with a total of 374 components, 38 jewels and a 40-hour power reserve. The hours, minutes, seconds, and a perpetual calendar is marked by baton-shaped hands done in rose gold to match the indices and subdial surroundings.
Priced at $130,000 USD, the 2019 Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Openworked Black Ceramic is set to release at select Audemars Piguet dealer before the end of the year.
In case you missed it, a rare Rolex Daytona 6241 “Paul Newman” found in a $25 USD thrift-store couch.
