Watch Details
Audemars Piguet is a notable brand - and the Royal Oak Grande Complication is a notable watch.
AP has traditionally been a part of the so-called 'Big Three' - the other two being Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin. However, Audemars Piguet has been drawing rather heavily on its Royal Oak heritage in the last few years, causing the name to be almost synonymous with the decisively sporty and rugged Offshore for the almost a decade. Still, AP has a rich pedigree when it comes to complications and can be considered somewhat of a specialist when it comes to the traditional 'Grande Complication'.
But that's not where it ends. Audemars Piguet has been one of the first to merge its tradition in haute horlogerie with its tradition in sports watches, perhaps creating a new segment in the blink of an eye - that of extreme high-end, haute horlogerie sports watches. The present Royal Oak is an example of this: the sporty and emblematic Royal Oak design is paired with an ultra-complex movement, and it's housed in handsomely crafted white gold case with a skeleton dial revealing much of the movements inner workings. How is that for merging tradition with an avant-garde mindset?
Selfwinding watch with perpetual calendar indicating the day, the date, the week, the moon phases, the month and the leap years, minute repeater, split-seconds chronograph and small seconds at 9 o'clock.

- What is a “Grande Complication”? The layman would compare it to an intricate maze, whereas a watchmaker would say that a major complication allows a timepiece to reveal more about time. The master watchmaker - a virtuoso of arrangements that might seem improbable to others, enamoured of fine workmanship as well as cutting-edge technology — knows that a Grande Complication takes the finishing process to the limit. Yet again, this proves how the hand of a skilled craftsman makes all the difference. Complications can be classified in three categories.
The first consists of watches with one or several additional hands to indicate the time (e.g. the chronograph, split-seconds and jumping seconds chronographs).
The second contains all watches featuring striking mechanisms.
The third refers to watches with mechanisms that provide astronomical indications (e.g. date,
moon phase and equation of time).
The prestigious " Grande Complication " designation is bestowed upon a watch that possesses at least four different functions out of these three categories. It takes great mastery to create a timepiece offering excellence in every department: design and reliability, as well as precision. The Calibre 2885 by the Manufacture Audemars Piguet is a case in point.
Fourteen lignes in diameter (31.60 mm) and 8.55 mm thick, this self-winding mechanical watch is endowed with a split-seconds chronograph, a minute repeater and a perpetual calendar with moon-phase functions.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26552BC.OO.D002CR.01 Reviews
The lights are ultra bright and came in really handy with a concert I was at....where normal illumination in watches usually fails.Decent wrist and good battery life so far. I like it. The watch light pattern is awesome and bright blue, the band is a dark metal copper tone. It does lose a minute of time here and there, though.

If I could only have back all of the money I have spent over the years trying to find the perfect watch. I was looking for something that was classy that was top quality. Not only that but I was so sick of buying watches that promised to be water resistant only to fog up if a little water got on them. It is well made and great quality. I have worn it for a few days.
