Designed for a smaller wrist, this 29mm execution retained all the character of the original Genta design, including the integrated bracelet and octagonal bezel. This two-tone example from 1977 is one of only 1,590 ever produced in this configuration, a genuinely small number for a foundational model from a major house. It represents the first evolution of an icon.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Pure Expression Of The Original Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis watch, nicknamed the Royal Oak II, preserves the purity of the first models. The clean, grey dial offers a symmetrical and direct display. As an early example from the production run, it captures the essence of the initial design evolution. The combination of steel and yellow gold softens the industrial feel of the all-steel original, making it a more versatile and expressive watch on the wrist.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGood Condition From A Foundational Era\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe watch is in overall good physical condition. The two-tone case and integrated bracelet are well-preserved, showing the sharp finishing and deliberate geometry that defines the Royal Oak. The grey dial and the crystal are in very good shape, with the dial's surface remaining clean and clear. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Original Integrated Sports Watch\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis is a watch for someone who understands the historical weight of the Royal Oak. The 29mm case size is subtle, but the design is as bold today as it was in the 1970s. It offers an entry point into one of the most important watch designs of the 20th century in a configuration that is both historically correct and genuinely uncommon. It works as a statement of taste for those who value design heritage over sheer size.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8638SA\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ladies Royal Oak II\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1977\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29mm\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBezel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Yellow Gold\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracelet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-Tone Integrated\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracelet Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits up to 7in\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grey\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Yellow Gold \u0026amp; Stainless Steel\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1307\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Audemars Piguet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55334666338595,"sku":"11307","price":21500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/DSCF8931.jpg?v=1783976841","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/audemars-piguet-ladies-royal-oak-ii-8638sa-two-tone-grey-dial","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
