1980s Audemars Piguet 25594SA Two-Tone Moonphase
Description: The 25594sa Two-tone moon phase owl is a stunner of a Royal Oak. The 36mm case wears more like a 38mm-39mm watch due to it not having crown guards. As such, the case size doesn’t feel very different than a typical Submariner. We love this watch for a number of reason, least which is the balanced dial with moon phase functionality. This case is in excellent condition and appears very thick. Very little slack on the bracelet. The bracelet will fit a 7.5″ wrist. The dial appears as a grayish dial and contrasts nicely against the two mixed medals.
The AP chronicles has the following info on sales numbers;
“From 1984 to 2001, the Royal Oak Day Date Moon Phase 25594SA appeared in a two-tone combination. The dial picks up the colour of the case middle, the crown and the eight screws punctuating the bezel. All other elements are yellow, with the notable exception of the night sky surrounding the moon. In 2001, the dial became noticeably lighter for this and many other models.
Sales from 1984 to 2006: a total of 1,802 units, of which 11 (Royal Oak 5572 sold in 1983, later transformed into 25594), 140 (1984), 254 (1985), 186 (1986), 135 (1987), 148 (1988), 49 (1989), 78 (1990), 91 (1991), 149 (1992), 202 (1993, 68 (1994), 62 (1995), 23 (1996), 40 (1997), 28 (1998), 20 (1999), 16 (2000), 17 (2001), 28 (2002), 13 (2003), 27 (2004), 7 (2005) and 10 (2006).”
