Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon GMT: A Sophisticated Blend of High-Tech Simplicity and Superior Horology

Introduced in 2018, the Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon GMT is an exceptional addition to Audemars Piguet’s ‘Concept’ collection - a line-up of exquisite and distinctive timepieces. Sized at 44 mm x 16.1 mm, it masterfully combines elements of the Royal Oak Offshore and the Royal Oak, effectively marrying their unique traits.

The meticulous use of advanced and lightweight materials such as titanium and ceramic is noteworthy, but it is ‘under the hood’ where the timepiece particularly stands out. The in-house movement, consisting of 348 parts, ticks at a steady frequency of 3Hz. More spectacularly, it offers a massive power reserve of 237 hours, outperforming all standard catalogue models with its ten-day power reserve.

Remarkably, you can still find this limited edition Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon GMT for sale – though priced above its original retail value of $176,500. With its brand legacy, innovative design, and extraordinary horological functionality, it is a coveted piece for any discerning timepiece aficionado.
