The collection had a second wind in the 2000s with contemporary references that made it the powerhouse that it is today.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Here is a simplified guide to the modern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/watches\/audemars-piguet\/royal-oak\/\">Audemars Piguet Royal Oak<\/a> series:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\">\n<table class=\"mcnDividerContent\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<h2><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Royal Oak Ref. 15300<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">A bolder take on the classic Royal Oak, the Royal Oak 15300 was introduced in 2005 and remained in production until 2012. This timepiece took the 39mm case size and the octagonal shape of the Jumbo but with modern proportions \u2013 achieved through a thicker case and a more solid bracelet.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&lt;&gt;<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MKYnl7AwIsg?si=Rb4MMkahrlIEdsXI\" width=\"665\" height=\"370\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<p align=\"justify\">Boasting a versatile look, its black Tapisserie dial has a large AP logo at 12, a mini date window at 3, and baton indices and hands with rounded edges. Thanks to its low-beat Caliber 3120 self-winding movement, it also features a thin\u00a0central seconds hand.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The 15300 comes exclusively in steel and rose gold with a choice of black, blue, or\u00a0white dials. Its brushed\u00a0link bracelet remains faithful to its predecessor by having an old-style\u00a0clasp and an\u00a0AP logo, while its 50-meter depth rating makes it suitable for casual water activities.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"m_-8320406419394417994mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<h2><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Royal Oak Ref. 15400 and 15450\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">Next, we have the Royal Oak 15400 and 15450, which both appeal to men with larger wrists and women who love wearing sports watches.

AP also retained the black, blue, and white dials but added a new and chic slate color dial option.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Rather than an AP emblem, the dials of these watches have double baton indexes at 12, along with a date indicator beside 3. This unique layout is made possible because of the smaller \u2018AP\u2019 text placed lower down the dial. Both models were discontinued in 2017 but are still highly sought-after in the pre-owned market.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\">\n<table class=\"mcnDividerContent\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnImageContent\" valign=\"top\"><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/?q=royal+oak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"mcnImage aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/0eb1ce6582\/images\/82a42c1b-6c3a-f697-4226-fefbd6f24861.png\" alt=\"Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Self-Winding White Dial\u00a015400\" width=\"600\" height=\"420\" align=\"center\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span class=\"il\">Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Self-Winding White Dial\u00a015400<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"m_-8320406419394417994mcnDividerBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<h2><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Royal Oak Ref. 15500 and 15550<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Royal Oak was revamped again in 2019, with major updates on its performance.
