It was the first luxury watch in steel with integrated bracelet and since its inception was produced in a variety of materials including full gold, platinum, tantalum, and often embellished with precious stones, the versatility of the Royal Oak helped make it a model adored by the brand’s elite clientele. The present watch is a rare example of the reference 66270BA in fully 18K yellow gold. Its remarkable conservation strikes at a first glance with no evident sign on both the bracelet and on the case with the iconic octagonal bezel. The stunning tapisserie gray dial with applied stick indexes and date aperture at 3 o’clock is untouched and further special quality of this lot since it’s one of the most rare variants to be found. 66270BA is powered by a quartz movement. This AP is an attractive, super clean example and an excellent choice for the discerning smaller wrist individual. Estimate € 10000 - 20000
