Audemars Piguet Royal Oak
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 39mm 15300ST.OO.1220ST.01/15300ST - 2009 Box And Paper
The Gérald Genta Icon in Perfect 39mm Proportion
The Royal Oak 15300ST represents the modern "Jumbo" evolution—maintaining the original 1972 design's 39mm diameter while housing an in-house AP automatic movement. This 2009 example showcases the white "Polar" dial with Grande Tapisserie pattern, delivering Gérald Genta's revolutionary integrated-bracelet design with the refinement of contemporary haute horlogerie finishing.
Specifications:
39mm stainless steel case (9mm thin, octagonal bezel with 8 exposed screws)
White Grande Tapisserie dial with applied baton indices and AP logo
Audemars Piguet Caliber 3120 automatic movement (exhibition caseback, 60-hour power reserve)
Integrated stainless steel bracelet (18 links, fits 6.75" wrist)
Sapphire crystal front and exhibition caseback
50m water resistance
Date window at 3 o'clock
Condition Assessment: Excellent pre-owned condition from 2009. Slight wear visible on bracelet and polished portions of case—typical desk-diving marks and handling from 15+ years. Some links show marks on the sides from normal bracelet articulation. Movement running at +5-6 seconds/day with 300+ amplitude (service history unknown but regulation exceptional for an in-house caliber). Papers are dated 2009 but remain unstamped (no dealer or owner name), preserving anonymity while confirming authenticity and year.
The Appeal: The 15300ST is the bridge between vintage Royal Oak collectibility and modern wearability—maintaining the original 39mm "Jumbo" diameter (perfect for most wrists) while housing AP's in-house Caliber 3120 with exhibition caseback. The white dial variant is rarer than standard blue or black configurations, offering subtle elegance over the more common colorways. At 9mm thin, this watch slides under shirt cuffs effortlessly despite the bold integrated bracelet. The Grande Tapisserie guilloche dial catches light dramatically, and the exposed bezel screws remain one of horology's most iconic design elements. This is entry-level Audemars Piguet that delivers the full Royal Oak experience without the 41mm+ case bloat of later references.

Watch on integrated bracelet (18 links, 6.75" wrist fit)
2009 dated papers (unstamped)
