The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Tourbillon Extra Thin Openworked first debuted at the 2012 SIHH in platinum, and at the 2016 SIHH HODINKEE’s Cara Barrett introduced us to the yellow gold version. This year, AP is releasing the watch in two new metals: stainless steel and pink gold. AP has also announced that these are the last two watches that will offer the AP Royal Oak Tourbillon Extra-Thin Openworked with this particular skeletonized movement design. As Cara mentioned in her 2016 story, the first skeletonized AP was a 1921 pocket watch and the first skeletonized Royal Oak was made in 1986, so these are participants in a long, storied tradition.
