SIHH 2015: Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept RD#1 (Updated with Live Photo)
As it did last year, Audemars Piguet presented a new Royal Oak Concept watch at the 2015 SIHH watch fair. This year’s model is truly a milestone: The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Concept RD#1 (formerly nicknamed “Acoustic Research”) �� which I saw, and heard, in person today �� is a unique prototype piece that is the result of an eight-year program to develop the “perfect” minute repeater sound volume.To develop the Royal Oak Concept RD#1 timepiece, Audemars Piguet partnered with the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), a Swiss organization dedicated to the study of acoustics.

looking to buy first Patek
I am new to Patek sub-forum here on TRF, very randomly I have checked few threads here. Until now I have been collecting Rolex, Pams and AP ROO sport watches. I am looking to get ONE Patek, dressy watch. I understand that most dressy Pateks are smaller than 40mm but I can't go below 40mm, just can't. Please help me pick one and only one dressy Patek. I will be wearing it only with the suite so Nautilus and Aquanaut won't work for me, I already have enough of sport watches. Calatrava is not something I am looking for - too simple. my budget is under 70K. Please post what would you recommend to get from Patek line.thank you all in advance.
