The watch we’re introducing at the moment is definitely the second Royal Oak Idea Flying Tourbillon GMT. The primary model got here out two years in the past and was itself a refresh of the marginally in a different way named Royal Oak Idea GMT Tourbillon. What made the refreshed 2018 model completely different was its uneven design and its use of a bridge-less (or flying) tourbillon.
The watch of two years in the past mixed a titanium case, a black ceramic bezel, a blacked-out dial/motion, and utilized rose-gold accents, which added as much as a reasonably flashy look. In the present day, in a restricted version of 30 items to be offered by way of Paris AP retailer Arije, we have got a Royal Oak Idea Flying Tourbillon GMT that delivers a way more low-key vibe. Just about every part about it’s a muted, monochromatic gray, together with the show, the rubber strap and clasp, and even the motion’s again.
The massive case is created from sandblasted titanium and has been fitted with a bezel that can also be fabricated from sandblasted titanium. There are nonetheless some ceramic parts, particularly the screw-down crown and the push-piece on the facet of the case, however they’re additionally rendered in gray.
