Introduced in 2012, the Royal Oak Ultra Thin Tourbillon pairs the classic Royal Oak aesthetics with a hand-wound movement with tourbillon escapement. It is the first Royal Oak with no additional complications to be fitted with such a highly-valued escapement – earlier versions like the 1997 limited, the 1999 Tradition d’Excellence and the later Chrono Tourbillon and Concept watches all featured additional functions. In the best of Royal Oak traditions, the present example is housed in a case of stainless steel.
