Case diameter is 41mm with a thickness of 12.5mm.
In the past, sports watches were often considered entry-level utility pieces. However, as sports watches have become mainstream in the luxury market, high-end collectors have shifted their attention toward this category. Basic functionality alone is no longer sufficient for many enthusiasts.
Among current high-end sports watch offerings, models that combine luxury finishing, mechanical complexity, and durability at the level of the Royal Oak automatic tourbillon remain relatively rare. The tourbillon complication carries strong symbolic weight in haute horology, while its visual movement adds significant aesthetic appeal. The addition of an automatic winding system further enhances practicality.
This release fills a gap in the market for high-end complex sports watches and has quickly attracted the attention of collectors and enthusiasts upon launch.
