A very special watch is presented in the Royal Oak Tourbillon Japan Special Edition. This timepiece is made by Audemars Piguet, one of the most respected watchmakers in the world. Only 45 pieces of this watch are created, which means it is very rare and special.<\/p>\n

The case is crafted from stainless steel and is shaped in the famous eight-sided Royal Oak design. This shape was first seen in 1972 and is still loved by watch collectors today. Eight small screws are placed around the edge of the case. These screws are not hidden but are shown as an important part of the design.<\/p>\n

The face of the watch is colored in deep black, which gives it a bold and modern look. On this black background, a special pattern that looks like small squares is cut. This pattern is called “tapisserie” and is made by hand on special machines. The black color makes the pattern more striking and easy to see.<\/p>\n

A special part called a tourbillon can be seen on the watch face. The tourbillon is a small cage where the heart of the watch is placed. This cage turns around all the time to fight against the pull of gravity. By this turning, the time is kept more exactly. Against the black dial, the tourbillon is shown off even more clearly.<\/p>\n

The bracelet is made from the same steel as the case and is joined to it without any gaps. This design is known as an “integrated bracelet” and is a famous part of the Royal Oak style.<\/p>\n

The watch is powered by a movement that is made and finished by hand. Every small part is polished and decorated with great care. The back of the watch is made from clear sapphire crystal so the beautiful movement can be seen.<\/p>\n

Audemars Piguet – bio<\/strong><\/p>\n

Audemars Piguet is a Swiss manufacturer of mechanical watches founded in 1875. They began in the Vall\u00e9e de Joux. Jules Louis Audemars formed a partnership with Edward Auguste Piguet. Audemars created complicated blank watch movements for other manufactures to use. Piguet specialized in the final regulation of watches. They then split responsibilities when they began their own company. Audemars was in charge of production and technical aspects while Piguet focused on sales and management. One of their first achievements was creating the first repeater wristwatch in 1892 and in 1972 the iconic steel \u201cRoyal Oak\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
