Description
A diamond-set bezel establishes the visual identity of Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 56530BA Vintage 'Ladies' Yellow Gold Diamond-Set Blue Sapphires Quartz, supported by a 33mm yellow gold case, a diamond-set blue sapphires dial, and a quartz movement.
Reference 56530BA represents one of the most lavishly gem-set executions of that era, fully diamond-paved across case, bezel, dial, and bracelet, with the distinctive addition of blue sapphire hour markers set into the pavé surface — an unusual and elegant configuration that sets this reference apart from the standard diamond-only treatment. The diamond-paved dial carries seven blue sapphires as hour markers, slim gold baton hands, and a date aperture at three.
The Royal Oak Lady traces to 1976, when jewelry designer Jacqueline Dimier reinterpreted Gérald Genta's 1972 architecture for women — preserving the octagonal porthole bezel and exposed hexagonal screws within smaller, more refined proportions. The 33mm case in 18-karat yellow gold is configured with the signature octagonal bezel pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds, the hexagonal screws appearing as graphic accents amidst the gem-setting.
Vintage Royal Oak ladies' references of this caliber represent a particular chapter in Audemars Piguet's history when the brand explored the model's full potential as high jewelry.
The integrated yellow gold Royal Oak bracelet continues the pavé treatment across its surface, framed by the polished gold center links, completed by an AP folding clasp and driven by a precision quartz movement.
Presented in pre-owned (very good) condition, the watch is offered without its original box or original papers.
