Owner review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15550ST
The 50th anniversary of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15550ST will go down as one of the most accomplished years in AP history. All of the novelties and limited editions they launched further boasted their horological legacy in the watch industry. Of course, I had to get in on the festivities as well. I am…

Owner review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 26320ST
“Is that the 50th Anniversary Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph?” That is the most common question I get whenever someone asks me about my Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 26320ST.

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Perpetual Calendar
Seeing one you are amazed, owning one you are eternally captivated. CODE11.59 has been a controversial release from Audemars Piguet since its debut in 2019. For me personally, it’s a beautiful and contemporary design that made me walk into AP’s boutique in the first place. I have had my eyes on the Audemars Piguet Code…

Owner review: Audemars Piguet Code 11.59
The Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 measures 41mm from side to side, minus the crown, and 50mm from lug to lug. I wish the watch was 40mm or smaller but 41 is not a dealbreaker for me, as I wear what I like regardless of perceived fit. The lug to lug could have been shaved down…

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 25594BA
Long before my encounter with the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 25594BA my first time trying on a Royal Oak on my wrist was a literal jaw dropping experience that lasted two to three minutes. I know this because I was staring down at the watch, timing myself the whole time. How could something look that…

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph Rose Gold
So I was asked by @thewatchregulator to submit a review of my Audemars Piguet Royal Oak chronograph rose gold in 41mm. This being my first official review of any watch, I first hesitated in how I would go about this. This is for sure, a very high-end luxurious timepiece in precious metal, by a well…

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Diver
In the nineties and the noughties the Royal Oak Offshore was the biggest, baddest luxury watch on the market, continuing to grow in size as the years progressed. But in the following decade tastes had begun to change slightly and downsizing began to occur. While the 44mm ROO was still a staple of the range,…

Owner Review: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15450ST
With the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15450ST coming in at 37mm in size, the question on people minds is “Is this watch going to be too small?” Especially as the original model was 39mm in size. However, luckily due to its hexagonal shape and integrated bracelet it wears slightly bigger. I would say more like…
