Our remarks
AUDEMARS PIGUET ROYAL OAK Limited Edition FONDATION - TIME FOR THE TREES – Ref. 14990ST/O/0789ST/01 | 36mm | Stainless Steel | Blue Dial | Limited Edition | Box & Papers 1999 | AP Service 2021
This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak “Fondation - Time for the Trees” Ref. 14990ST/O/0789ST/01 is a rare and historically significant expression of the Royal Oak lineage, combining Gérald Genta’s iconic design with a meaningful philanthropic purpose. Crafted in stainless steel and featuring the classic 36mm Royal Oak case, this reference was produced as a strictly limited edition of only 250 pieces worldwide, making it exceptionally scarce and highly desirable among collectors.
The watch is distinguished by its unique blue dial, created exclusively for the “Fondation of Trees” edition. The rich blue tone adds depth and elegance, while the discreet “Fondation” signature positioned above the Audemars Piguet immediately sets this dial apart from standard Royal Oak configurations. Combined with the signature Tapisserie pattern, applied hour markers, and Royal Oak hands, the dial achieves a refined balance between exclusivity and timeless design.
The iconic octagonal bezel with exposed white gold screws and the integrated stainless steel bracelet complete the unmistakable Royal Oak aesthetic, offering both visual presence and exceptional comfort on the wrist.
Powering the watch is the ultra-thin automatic Audemars Piguet Calibre 2225, based on the Jaeger-LeCoultre 889/1 architecture and finished to Audemars Piguet’s exacting standards. Known for its reliability, slim profile, and refined construction, the Calibre 2225 perfectly complements the Royal Oak’s elegant proportions and understated sophistication.
Originally introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak redefined luxury watchmaking by elevating stainless steel to the highest level of horological prestige. By the late 1990s, special editions such as this “Fondation of Trees” model reflected a more mature evolution of the Royal Oak while also highlighting Audemars Piguet’s early commitment to environmental responsibility.
This example was originally sold in 1999 and received a full service directly from Audemars Piguet in 2021, ensuring excellent mechanical condition and complete peace of mind for the next owner.
This watch is accompanied by:
- original Audemars Piguet outer box
- original wooden presentation box
- original warranty papers
"A rare opportunity to acquire a strictly limited 36mm Royal Oak with a unique blue “Fondation” dial, outstanding provenance, and confirmed Audemars Piguet service history—an exceptional piece for the discerning collector.”
Comes with a one year warranty through our watch lab.
