Royal Oak Concept Watch, the most special on in Royal Oak watch Collection and the new-generation concept watch released 30 years after Royal Oak was created. This watch makes a hit in watch-making industry. It adopts high-tech materials and complex movement, pushing watch-making industry into a new area.Royal Oak Concept Watch is defined as "Tourbillon Sport Watch". But the truly innovation lies in its latest shock-proof technique, new material,, new performance display, new power reserve scan indicator and Dynamographe rather than the complex tourbillon design.

Tourbillon of Excellent Shock-Proof Performance

In our impression, tourbillon, though precise and beautiful, is always complex and fragile. Its structure is susceptible to outside influence. Especially, it could not bear great shock which is fatal. Royal Oak makes revolutionary improvement on tourbillon anti-shock structure and creates tourbillon snake-shaped bridge at 9 o'clock position. The snake-shaped bridge features flexual and flexible structure which absorbs the flexure operation created by stress when subject to shock. Therefore, it bears acting force from all directions and thus absorbs shocks. This design blends latest creativity into tourbillon structure and breaks through the limits on tourbillon-making techniques. Royal Oak Concept Watch just leaves a splendid page in watch-making history.

Brand New Materials

The reasons behind Royal Oak Concept Watch is defined as sporty watch are as follows: it adopts excellent shock-proof tourbillon; it applies lots of new new materials which are often used in aviation and energy fields.

The bezel, clasp and movement are crafted from titanium alloy which is light and anti-corrosion. The face adopts sapphire crystal glass with anti-reflective coating while the bracelet is made from tailor-made rubber, novel and fashionable.

The case is presented on alactite 602, a super cobalt alloy consists of 57% cobalt, 31% chromium, 5% tungsten and a little bit carbon, silicon and iron. This material, used in aviation industry, is twice harder than steel and of excellent wear-proof performance. Audemars Piguet makes a bold try to make case from this new material.

Unique Display

The dial shows tourbillon mechanisms of strange shapes. At 12 o'clock position, there locates Dynamographe which mainly shows whether power is under the best out-put status. If the Dynamographe hand is within the limited position, the energy of spring may provide best precision to movement. If not, you have to wind the watch again. At 3 o'clock positions, there comes AP's patented prismatical power reserve indicator which was created in 1885. This indicator uses TB (Turns of Barrel, 1 TB=6 hours) as unit and marks power reserve status by numerals. Each unit represents 6 hour power reserve; 12 means there is 72 hour power reserve. At 6 o'clock position, there equipped with R-N-H function display. When wind the watch or adjust time, you have to push the button at 4 o'clock to set the function and only then you can carry on your operation, very creative and practical.Without doubts, Royal Oak Concept watch is second to none at function display.

Outstanding Performance

AS all screws and connecting points have improved design, this wristwatch reaches an extreme watch-proof depth, from the original 50 meters to 500 meters now. It carries Cal. 2896 manual winding movements which fixed by 6 screws to make it resists shock and quick-turn more effectively. The revolutionary tourbillon structure further guarantees the precise operation and display of movement.
