About the Royal Oak Concept family

Royal Oak Concept is Audemars Piguet's experimental line, which began in 2002 with the Concept watch for the 30th anniversary of the Royal Oak. It uses larger, more architectural cases and unusual materials such as titanium, ceramic, forged carbon and frosted gold to show off complicated movements.

Models in the catalog include flying tourbillons, flying tourbillon GMTs and chronographs, with calibers such as 2930, 2937 and 2950. Many are limited or made in small numbers. Dealers identify them by full reference, which records the case material, and pay close attention to the condition of the case, since some of the materials cannot simply be polished.
