Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked

The Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked is like a mechanical sculpture you wear on your wrist. It's still very much part of the Royal Oak family, but this one pulls back the curtain on its inner brilliance. That twin balance wheel setup isn’t just for show, it boosts accuracy and adds a hypnotic rhythm you’ll catch yourself staring at. The real kicker? The skeletonized dial, with everything visible in layered harmony.

It’s raw, complex, and weirdly soothing to look at. Whether in rose gold, black ceramic, or full frosted white gold, every version hits different. Expect pricing between €100.000 and €200.000, placing it shoulder to shoulder with the Tourbillon, but still a step below the Concept’s moonshot creations. For collectors who love mechanical drama with architectural finesse, this is the grail.
