The 25572st day date a.k.a. the ‘Owl’ among AP watchlifestylers because of the resemblance to the eyes of an owl— is one of the most beautiful Royal Oaks ever made.

Originally launched in the early 1980s, this lovely 36 mm reference was discontinued in the early 1990s and later replaced by ref. 26330 fitted with a larger case measuring 39 mm

The dial on this Royal Oak Day & Date ref. 25572ST still features the ‘petite tapisserie’  with an AP logo at 12 o’clock and a first generation dial (small A and small P). It is also one of the earliest produced Royal Oak Day-Dates ever made (it bears a 2 digits serial number starting with 1) and is realy rare with this black dial. We have managed to track down only 2 other Royal Oak with this configuration
