Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15467BA.OO.1256BA.01 Double Balance Wheel Yellow Gold Openworked Dial (2026)

This Royal Oak unites two of Audemars Piguet's defining talents, the art of openworking and the patented Double Balance Wheel, in a warm, all-yellow-gold composition. Twin balance wheels and hairsprings share a single axis to improve rate stability and consistency, a clever innovation displayed openly through the skeletonized dial. Rendered entirely in yellow gold, from case and bracelet to the movement's bridges themselves, the watch glows with a tonal harmony that few openworked designs achieve so completely.

The 37mm case and integrated bracelet are crafted entirely in 18-karat yellow gold, the octagonal bezel secured by eight hexagonal screws in the unmistakable Royal Oak manner. In place of a dial sits the fully openworked movement, its bridges and mainplate finished in gold and hand-beveled to catch the light, with the double balance wheel on show. Applied gold markers and hands rise above the mechanism, keeping time legible amid the golden intricacy.
