Audemars Piguet introduced the Royal Oak ‘Rhône-Fusterie’ in a limited edition of 500 pieces to mark the opening of the boutique in Geneva in March 2008. The watch’s colour scheme echoes that of the Swiss national flag – red and white.

What makes the present example even more interesting is the presence of an engraved Crown Khanjar insignia – the coat-of-arms of the Sultan of Oman and his family. The same insignia can also be seen applied as a gilt print on the presentation box.

This watch is presented in like-new condition and is a good opportunity for AP collector to acquire an interesting and exotic timepiece.
