Description

Hi everyone,

Up for sale here is an AP Royal Oak Chronograph Alinghi City of Sails. This watch was made during the commemoration of Royal Oak's 30th anniversary in 2002. It is distinctive with 2 tone dial with arabic numeral and some red accents on the dial and hands.

The watch doesn't have the original box & paper however it has Extract from Archive from AP and AP Travel box. It is in very good condition, it has been polished in the past but still show sign of original finish with crisp lines and sharp edges.

I'm asking USD 14,150.- plus shipping for this watch and I believe it is priced as low as it can get for any 39mm Royal Oak.

I'm a long time forum member here on WatchProSite and I can provide strong references if needed.

Thank you for looking!

Sam
