The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding reference 77350CB.OO.1266CB.01 is a 34mm luxury timepiece distinguished by its full white ceramic construction. Introduced as a follow-up to the 2021 black ceramic version, this model features a case and integrated bracelet meticulously finished with a combination of satin-brushing and polished chamfers. The monochromatic aesthetic is accented by eight hexagonal 18k pink gold screws on the bezel, a pink gold caseback, and a matching pink gold-capped crown. Its silver-toned dial features the signature Grande Tapisserie pattern, adorned with pink gold applied hour markers and Royal Oak hands, both coated with luminescent material for enhanced legibility.
Powering the watch is the self-winding Calibre 5800, a movement specifically developed for the 34mm collection. It operates at a frequency of 4 Hz and provides a 50-hour power reserve. The sapphire crystal caseback offers a view of the movement’s high-end decorations, including Côtes de Genève and circular graining, along with its 22k pink gold oscillating weight. In terms of complications, the watch offers essential timekeeping functions including hours, minutes, and center seconds, supplemented by a date display at the 3 o’clock position. The case is designed to be water-resistant up to 50 meters.
General reviews of the 77350CB emphasize its striking visual impact and the technical difficulty associated with finishing white ceramic, which is significantly harder than its black counterpart. Collectors often praise its balanced proportions and its role as a versatile, unisex option that fits comfortably on slimmer wrists. While some initially find the 34mm size small, the brilliance and thickness of the ceramic are frequently noted for providing substantial wrist presence. Critics and enthusiasts alike regard it as a bold, modern evolution of the classic Royal Oak design, though its availability is limited as it is primarily sold through boutiques.
