Royal Oak 5402SA (C-Series)

The 5402 is the original Royal Oak, designed by Gérald Genta and introduced in 1972. The SA version pairs stainless steel with yellow gold, adding warmth and contrast to the iconic octagonal bezel and integrated bracelet. Produced in limited numbers compared to the steel 5402ST, the 5402SA is one of the rarer and most desirable executions of the reference. This example is from the C-series, placing it in the late 1970s production.
