Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Ceramic Bracelet

Introduction

Offered here we have a black ceramic bracelet from an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Quantieme Perpetuel in ceramic. Also fitting the ceramic tourbillon Royal Oak model, this ceramic bracelet is a testament to AP's enduring desire to showcase artisanal craftsmanship, with its wide array of surfaces, each finished to AP's exacting standards. As any watchmaker will attest, polishing a Royal Oak is a daunting task, and for AP to create the Royal Oak's bracelet in ceramic was not easy, especially in terms of keeping the same finishing standards as we have known to expect from the brand's precious metal and stainless steel options, of which they have expertly replicated on ceramic, which is far harder to polish than the materials traditionally used.

Condition

Bracelet is in excellent condition and has 18 links. One of the two end "plots" is broken, as seen in the images. There is one steel bar missing that fits the bracelet to the case. Bracelet was taken off a ceramic QP, and fits both the QP and the ceramic Tourbillon.

Our Perspective

An icon of watchmaking, the Royal Oak's bracelet has always been impressively constructed and incredibly detailed, so to make it from ceramic to the same exacting standards as seen in traditional materials was no easy feat.
