The Basics
Introduced in 2012, the Royal Oak Extra-Thin Tourbillon pairs the classic Royal Oak aesthetics with a hand-wound movement with tourbillon escapement. It is the first Royal Oak with no additional complications to be fitted with such a highly-valued escapement – earlier versions like the 1997 limited, the 1999 Tradition d’Excellence and the later Chrono Tourbillon and Concept watches all featured additional functions. The present example has its caliber 2924 housed in a pink gold case with matching bracelet.
