A Closer Look at the 1017 ALYX 9SM Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Custom made by MAD Paris.
A 1-of-40 1017 ALYX 9SM Audemars Piguet Royal Oak customized by MAD Paris has just landed.
Revealed a few years back by Matthew M Williams, the custom AP maintains the watch’s iconic case shape with hexagonal white gold screws but sheds the Tapisserie dial in favor of a smooth surface. The signature bracelet’s clasp has also been updated to reflect 1017 ALYX 9SM’s Cobra buckle-inspired fastening system.
Taking on a 41mm version of the Royal Oak, this watch comes in a custom MAD Paris Pelican case and is priced at $81,000 USD when it hits specialized retailers soon.
