Combining ancestral expertise with futuristic technology, this 42 mm titanium and the black ceramic timepiece is a feat of openwork and highlights the Manufacture’s boundless creativity in complications. This model also embodies Audemars Piguet’s desire to forge links with different cultural universes, seeking inspiration beyond the world of Haute Horlogerie and drawing from the world of pop culture. Limited to 250 pieces, the Royal Oak Concept Tourbillon “Spider-Man” is accompanied by a unique piece, which will be auctioned off to benefit the First Book and Ashoka associations, non-profit organisations that work to empower young people to create change and a positive impact.
Following the Royal Oak Concept “Black Panther” Flying Tourbillon, which launched in 2021, this second collaboration with Marvel features Spider-Man, one of Marvel’s most popular Super Heroes.
Marvel’s Spider-Man unites a large community of fans around the world while promoting family and community values. The Super Hero quickly became a pop culture phenomenon after appearing in comics, video games, consumer products, and more. After more than sixty years since his debut, Audemars Piguet and Marvel are pleased to pay tribute to this amazing icon.
Spider-Man immediately captivated audiences. An ordinary young man, Peter Parker suddenly finds himself with extraordinary powers after having been bitten by a radioactive spider. With his newfound superpowers, Peter embodies the adage, “With great power, there must also come great responsibility.” Similarly, Audemars Piguet’s commitment to the First Book and Ashoka organizations also stems from this motto. This philanthropic endeavor began in 2021, with the launch of the Royal Oak Concept “Black Panther” Flying Tourbillon.
