This ravishingly beautiful emerald green and diamond dial steel Royal Oak perpetual calendar reference 25654 can only be described as a Royal Oak collectors dream, its highly individual aesthetic places this watch as one of the most desirable of Audemars Piguet’s ‘no leap year’ perpetual calendar Royal Oaks ever to be offered at international auction. Furthermore, it is presented in superb condition, being subject to servicing by Audemars Piguet in 2021. The present watch is the only known example of reference 25654ST with this incredible rich green coloured dial and diamond indexes. Confirmed by Audemars Piguet’s archives as “Cadran vert emeraude, index diamants”, this D-series Royal Oak was sold in 1997.
Possibly Unique ‘Emerald Green’ Dial Analysis
The singular rich green colour of the dial is highly unusual in any wristwatch. Described by Audemars Piguet as “Emerald Green” it has an unmissable eye-catching aesthetic in combination with the steel case and dark blue of the moon phase. The surface of the dial is also unusual in having guilloche engine-turned decoration in a concentric wavy-line pattern with smooth surface for the three subsidiary dials. The green paint/lacquer has a rich glossy finish and features white printing for the indications and signature. Nine of the hour indexes are set with round white diamonds in claw settings.
