The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak arrived in 1972 as the first luxury sports watch in steel, designed by Gerald Genta with an octagonal bezel and exposed screws that broke every convention of the era's dress watches. The reference 15500ST carries the collection's signature integrated bracelet and a black dial with the brand's Grande Tapisserie pattern, its horizontal indexes catching the light against the tapered hour markers. The 41mm stainless steel case keeps the octagonal bezel's eight hexagonal screws, a detail that has defined the Royal Oak silhouette since its debut.

Inside is the calibre 4302, a self-winding movement developed by Audemars Piguet with a 22 carat gold oscillating weight, offering a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. It drives the hours, minutes, running seconds, and a date function at 3 o'clock, and is paired with a sapphire exhibition caseback, an integrated steel bracelet, and water resistance suited to everyday wear.
