Gérald Genta’s 1972 Royal Oak shocked the industry: a steel watch priced like gold, with an octagonal bezel, exposed screws and a hand-finished integrated bracelet. It created the luxury sports watch category. The 15510ST is the current 41 mm three-hand date model, with AP’s “Grande Tapisserie” dial and the 4302 movement.
Who it’s for
Collectors who want one of the most influential designs in watchmaking. The finishing on the bracelet alone is extraordinary.
Buying tips
- It replaced the 15500ST (2019–2022) and the 15400ST before it. Compare all three on price.
- Polishing can soften the sharp edges that make a Royal Oak. Unpolished examples are worth more.
- Blue, black, gray and other dial colors trade at different premiums.
