It upholds the Royal Oak's classic aesthetic while transcending traditional material limitations, making it a benchmark in modern haute horlogerie!
1. Advantages of Ceramic Material
High Hardness & Scratch Resistance: Crafted from precision ceramics (like zirconium oxide), its hardness far exceeds stainless steel, resisting daily scratches and maintaining lasting luster.
Lightweight & Comfortable Wear: Lighter than metal, reducing wrist strain for extended comfort.
Hypoallergenic & Corrosion-Resistant: Chemically stable ceramic minimizes skin sensitivity while withstanding sweat and corrosion.
Distinctive Texture: Surfaces undergo fine polishing or matte finishing to achieve deep luster or understated elegance. Available in three colorways: black, white, and rare blue.
2. Case and Bracelet Design
Integrated Structure: The APS case seamlessly connects with the bracelet, preserving the Royal Oak's iconic octagonal bezel and “Tapisserie” patterned dial while imparting a contemporary aesthetic through ceramic.
Complex Craftsmanship: APS employs ceramic sintering—an exceptionally challenging process requiring precise temperature and pressure control, resulting in low yield rates that highlight technical prowess.
Refined Details: Beveled and polished bracelet links ensure smooth edges for comfortable wrist contact; the case measures approximately 10.5mm thick, balancing intricate manufacturing with wearability.
