We are delighted to present this extraordinary Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Flying Tourbillon Openworked "50th Anniversary", Ref. 26735ST.OO.1320ST.01 - one of the most technically sophisticated and visually captivating Royal Oak models ever produced. Combining the unmistakable Royal Oak design with the artistry of openworked haute horlogerie and the mesmerizing flying tourbillon, this exceptional timepiece stands as a celebration of Audemars Piguet's unrivaled watchmaking expertise.

Introduced as part of the prestigious 50th Anniversary Collection, this reference features a rhodium toned "50 Years" oscillating weight made from 22 carat pink gold , making it one of the final and most desirable executions of this remarkable generation. Crafted from stainless steel, the watch offers an extraordinary contrast between its architectural openworked movement and the iconic Royal Oak case, resulting in a striking yet timeless aesthetic.

The 41 mm case, originally conceived by the legendary designer Gérald Genta, showcases the signature octagonal bezel secured by eight polished white gold screws. The combination of meticulously hand-finished satin-brushed surfaces and mirror-polished bevels perfectly demonstrates Audemars Piguet's renowned expertise in case finishing. The integrated stainless steel bracelet completes the unmistakable Royal Oak silhouette while offering exceptional comfort and presence on the wrist.

The true centerpiece of this masterpiece is its fully openworked dial, revealing the beautifully skeletonized manufacture movement in spectacular detail. Every bridge has been meticulously hand-finished to expose the intricate mechanics beneath, while maintaining outstanding symmetry and legibility. At 6 o'clock, the flying tourbillon appears to float effortlessly within the movement, creating a fascinating display of mechanical artistry and precision.

Powering the watch is the Audemars Piguet in-house Calibre 2972, an automatic flying tourbillon movement developed and finished entirely by the manufacture. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement showcases exceptional hand-finishing, including polished bevels, satin-brushed bridges, circular graining, and the exclusive, rhodium toned, 22k pink gold "50 Years" anniversary rotor, reserved exclusively for the Royal Oak 50th Anniversary collection.

The watch is fitted with its original integrated stainless steel bracelet and Audemars Piguet folding clasp, preserving its complete originality and sporting elegance.
