Audemars Piguet royal oak 14790 short markers MK3

Who doesn’t love the royal oak? Unfortunately, for the small-wristed among us, the regular royal oak is just a tad too big. Thankfully, we can still get the full RO experience with the more modestyly sized ref. 14790 The mid-size ref. 14790 Royal Oak was launched by Audemars Piguet in 1992. At 36 mm, the mid-size Royal Oak is more wearable than the full-size Jumbo. Don’t be fooled by it’s dimensions though, it wears a bit larger due the Royal Oak’s iconic angular case design. This 14790 dates back to 2004 and features a third series dial with Audemars Piguet’s iconic embossed ‘grande tapisserie’ pattern in a cool sley grey hue (). Typical for post-2000 executions of the 14790, the dial sports short oval-shaped hour markers that are filled with greenish super luminova luma.
