Description
Few watches have shaped modern horology like the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, and none capture its original spirit as faithfully as the Royal Oak “Jumbo” Extra-Thin. Born from Gérald Genta’s revolutionary 1972 design, the Jumbo is the purest expression of the collection, with its iconic octagonal bezel, eight exposed hexagonal screws, and seamlessly integrated stainless steel bracelet. The Reference 16202 carries this legacy forward with the in-house Calibre 7121, an ultra-thin self-winding movement offering a 55-hour power reserve while keeping the case a remarkably slim 8.1mm. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the openworked gold rotor adds a touch of warmth to the cool steel. Finished with the signature “Petite Tapisserie” dial and an interplay of brushed and polished surfaces, the 16202 remains the definitive choice for collectors who value understated elegance with unmistakable presence.
Selfwinding with date display. Extra-thin 39mm case. Stainless steel case and bracelet, blue “Petite Tapisserie” dial.
