1970s Audemars Piguet Ref.5369ST Rare Stainless Steel Wrist Watch Designed by Gerald Genta

This is a beautiful example of a rare Gerald Genta designed steel wrist watch, Audemars Piguet Ref. 5369ST, manufactured in the early 1970s. It was manufactured at the same time as the Royal Oak, a luxury wristwatch made of stainless steel, which is unprecedented in the history of Audemars Piguet, with an oval design that is neither round nor square, and the use of steel material, which is rare among the three major Audemars Piguet makers. The design is by Mr. Gerald Genta, and although it looks like a simple dress watch at first glance, it has a thin high-end movement Cal.K2002/1A on the back side, a jointed crown, a winged windshield, and the back cover is fixed to the middle case with 4 screws and a metal ring. The back is fixed to the middle case with 4 screws and a metal ring to further secure it. The watch is a rare piece, of which only 200 pieces were produced, probably due to the high production cost at that time.
