Bulova/AP collaboration?

By: LwC : May 20th, 2026-22:46

Amidst all the hoopla around the Swatch/AP collaboration release, I somehow came across this advertisement for a Bulova wristwatch that looks like a Royal Oak. With all the speculation and photoshopped images about what the Swatch/AP watch might look like...

Wow. That's amazing, right?

I wonder how many others have never seen this. Or more interestingly if anybody here HAS one! edit: Flash! A news bulletin! 15 years ago on this very site (where else???) www.watchprosite.com . If there were pics posted then they do not appear on my scree...

I didn't even know this one! Very interesting. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.

It's interesting even if I don't really see the point of making such a copycat: it makes no sense imo. Best, Emmanuel

These come up for sale quite often

Usually around £1500-2000. Probably a bit more now!!

I knew about this model, on top of my head, I think Gerald Genta sold the design to 2 brands Bulova and AP, and finally AP "bought back" the design from Bulova to be only ones to produce the "Royal Oak"
