Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 56343 'Ladies' Yellow Gold Diamonds Quartz

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Date Ref. 56343 in 18k yellow gold is an exceptional high-jewelry interpretation of the Royal Oak, distilled into an elegant 25mm ladies’ format. This reference transforms Gérald Genta’s iconic design into a fully gem-set masterpiece, retaining the octagonal bezel and integrated bracelet architecture while elevating every surface with meticulous diamond setting. The yellow-gold case provides a warm, luxurious backdrop for the diamond baguette bezel, whose precise geometry mirrors the Royal Oak’s sharp lines and instantly recognizable silhouette.

Across the dial, brilliant-cut diamonds create a radiant, pavé surface, punctuated by baguette-cut diamond hour markers that add structure and clarity without interrupting the watch’s jewel-forward aesthetic. The brilliance of the pavé dial, set against the warmth of yellow gold, gives the watch a luminous presence, while the date window maintains the practicality of the Royal Oak Date lineage.

The integrated bracelet continues the artistry, fully set with brilliant-cut diamonds across its links, complemented by baguette diamonds that echo the shapes and rhythm of the bezel. The result is a bracelet that wears more like a piece of high jewelry than a traditional watch strap, yet still carries the unmistakable form and engineering of the Royal Oak. Powered by a quartz movement to achieve a slim, comfortable profile, this reference blends ease of wear with opulent finishing.

For collectors, the Royal Oak 56343 represents one of the most lavish expressions of the ladies’ Royal Oak ever produced—a convergence of iconic design, precious-metal construction, and exceptional gem-setting. It’s a statement piece for someone who values both the history of the Royal Oak and the elegance of a fully jeweled creation, offering wrist presence that is unmistakably luxurious yet grounded in one of watchmaking’s most celebrated designs.
