Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Frosted Gold Selfwinding 34 mm – Reference 77450BC.GG.1361BC.01
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Frosted Gold Selfwinding, reference 77450BC.GG.1361BC.01, marries the sporty elegance of the Royal Oak with dazzling high-jewelry artistry in a compact 34 mm size. Crafted from 18‑carat white gold and enhanced with the signature Florentine “frosted gold” finish, this timepiece is a radiant statement of craftsmanship and contemporary luxury.
Florentine Frosted Gold: A Sparkling Technique
The hallmark of this model is the artisanal “frosted gold” — thousands of micro-indents hammered into the white‑gold surfaces create a soft, shimmering effect that mimics diamond pavé but with no actual stones. This technique elevates the iconic Royal Oak octagonal bezel, case, and integrated bracelet into a jewelry masterpiece that still maintains the collection’s edgy geometry.
Crystal Sand Dial with Rhodium Radiance
Under the glare-proofed sapphire crystal sits a rhodium-plated “crystal sand” dial, textured to refract light like fine sand — delivering depth and luminosity. Applied pink-gold hour markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating offer refined legibility and adorning contrast against the frosted brilliance around them.
Elegant Dimensions Practical Wearability
Measuring 34 mm in diameter and a mere 8.8 mm thick, this Royal Oak offers a slender, versatile profile suitable for all wrist sizes. Water-resistant to 50 m and framed with dual sapphire crystals, it merges everyday resilience with elegant aesthetics.
Calibre 5800 – Precision in Miniature
Driven by the ultra-slim automatic Calibre 5800 (28,800 vph, 50‑hour power reserve), this movement powers hours, minutes, central seconds, and date with robust reliability. The sapphire display back reveals a beautifully decorated mechanism complete with Côtes de Genève and a 22K white-gold rotor.
