About the watch

The Royal Oak is one of the most important watches in the history of watchmaking. Gerald Genta's genius is fully expressed in this 36 mm ‘mini-jumbo’ version, which is often easier to wear due to its smaller size compared to the famous 39 mm ‘Jumbo’. However, the mini-jumbo is every bit as impressive as the jumbo, with AP having done an excellent job of adapting the proportions and appearance that are the very essence of the Royal Oak. The 14486ST, ST meaning that the watch is made entirely of steel, has been produced to only 411 examples, which makes it a pretty rare watch. It fully showcases the characteristic angles and revolutionary style of this timeless Royal Oak, while leaving plenty of room for the dial to shine and be the centre of attention. Indeed, this particular timepiece boasts a truly exquisite dial. It goes from grey to dark bleu, passing through shades of mauve and even anthracite depending on the light. It is exceptionally beautiful and enhances the watch’s appeal. The case, strap and dial are all in excellent condition. The watch is entirely original and comes with its original box and warranty papers, which is indeed very rare for models of this type and age.

The case has a lot of material, which is a good sign that the watch has probably been lightly refreshed, but that it was done with care.

The watch is sold with its original box and guarantee papers from 1988.

The movement is the original 2151, which runs well.
