Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 14790ST rare MK1 Box and Papers Set
SOLD
The Inside Story
We make no secret of our love for what are known as the mid-size Royal Oaks. Especially when they are a little more special, like this very rare MK1, the first and rarest of all the three generations and was only in production for one year! This specific example even comes with the original guarantee booklet, boxes and even the hangtag!
This Royal Oak 14790ST is a steel execution remaining in really great condition with a super minty case. The Mk1 black petit tapisserie dial is beautiful and features the small straight AUDEMARS PIGUET signature that defines the MK1 from the later versions. This is still the old style dial seen in earlier references like the ref 4100.
They are super cool on the wrist and are still a good buy in this market. We love the bold sporty look of these watches, that wear much larger than the 36mm size would suggest. The bracelet is in great condition and will fit a wrist size up to 18.5cm.
This funky AP comes with both inner and outer boxes, hangtag , booklets and original guarantee book. The watch has the calibre 2225 automatic movement, a modified Jaeger LeCoultre movement, which has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.

Each vintage timepiece is individually selected and carefully inspected by our team of experts. After we buy a watch it is mechanically inspected and fully checked by our watchmaker. If necessary, the movement will be fully serviced and tested to ensure it is running to our exacting standards.
We will always describe the watch as fully as we can in our sales texts. Our zoomable images are of the highest possible quality and form an important part of each watch’s description. We will never hide or cover up any element of any watch we sell.
Key to our unparalleled service is Fedex Priority shipping, fully insured. Once you have received your watch, we encourage you to inspect it thoroughly. If you are not 100% satisfied, please let us know. We offer a 14 days return policy. Simply return the watch to get a full refund of the original purchase price.
Our Warranty
We offer a one-year warranty on the mechanical function of the watch, starting from the day of purchase. We do not guarantee the waterproof nature of any (vintage) watch, unless expressly made in writing. Therefore, our warranty will not cover any damage done to the case and/or movement by water or moisture entering the watch. Our warranty does not apply to accidental damage or mishandling of your watch and does not extend to the bracelet, case parts (including pushers, winding stem, crown and bezel), watch glass, dial and hands.
