In 2019, Audemars Piguet released a new model to the Royal Oak Collection, the Ref.15500ST featuring a blue dial and powered by the new caliber 4302, an automatic in-house movement with its power reserve of 70 hours and high-beat frequency of 4Hz. This timepiece keeps the classic aesthetics of the Royal Oak that has been tweaked for better precision to its wearer.
Established in 1875 by partners Jules-Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet, Audemars Piguet is one of the last remaining watchmaking maisons operating under the original founders. The brand has created several technical innovations throughout their existence including the first minute-repeater wristwatch in 1892 and the first skeletonized pocketwatch in 1934. In 1972, Audemars Piguet introduced the Royal Oak designed by Gérald Genta, which was the most expensive stainless-steel luxury sports watch at the time. Since then, the brand has released other iconic models such as the record-breaking Royal Oak Self-Winding Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin, the world’s thinnest automatic perpetual calendar wristwatch.
