Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar

Had a chance to try this beauty on at the boutique in Tokyo this week. I'd say it is pretty close to a perfect daily wearer in stainless steel at a fairly reasonable price point. The moon phase is the best I have seen.

That is a great combo

Dial is very clean on this model, lots of info without looking cluttered.

Love that watch! Amazing! The only way it could be improved upon is if they made a Pt version.

Just on another note. The blue of the dial is not the same as on the chrono or the 15400. Much darker while the other blue is much lighter.

Awesome watch.

I could do without the week counter, it clutters the dial in my opinion.

It's an homage to their classique perps from the 40's & 50's. It's an AP thing. :)

I believe that it is a 2016 as they seemed to have just gotten it in.

AP do these watches so well. There's a lot going on with the dial and it could so easily look cluttered. Somehow AP manage to make everything perfectly legible.

Bravo AP!

If I were to flip my 15400 blue, will definitely be looking to trade up to ROPC!
