Audemars Piguet Royal Oak "Jumbo" 16202ST

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak "Jumbo" 16202ST is the current 39mm stainless steel Royal Oak, powered since 2019 by AP's in-house ultra-thin Calibre 7121, with roughly 55 hours of power reserve. Cazador has zero verified PricePoint observations. Its differential: the 16202ST restored the exact 39mm case size of Gérald Genta's original 1972 Royal Oak — unusually compact by today's steel sports-watch standards.

History

The reference 16202ST is Audemars Piguet's current-catalog expression of the Royal Oak silhouette Gérald Genta designed for the brand in 1972 — a stainless steel sports watch that was, at the time, unusually large for its category: hence the "Jumbo" nickname the model has carried ever since.

Inside the case sits the Calibre 7121, an automatic movement built in-house by Audemars Piguet and engineered to be ultra-thin, delivering approximately 55 hours of power reserve. [UNVERIFIED: exact movement thickness, frequency, and component count are not provided in the source specs used for this fiche.]

The case carries the design language that has defined the Royal Oak since 1972: an octagonal bezel fixed by eight visible hexagonal screws. The bracelet is integrated directly into the case in matching stainless steel. The dial carries the "Grande Tapisserie" guilloché pattern.

According to the manufacturer specifications used for this fiche, this exact configuration — the 39mm case paired with Calibre 7121 — was introduced in 2019. As of this writing, the 16202ST remains part of Audemars Piguet's current catalog and in active production, with no discontinuation announced.

Why is the 39mm Royal Oak called the "Jumbo" if it's a relatively small case today?

What movement powers the Royal Oak 16202ST?

It runs Audemars Piguet's Calibre 7121, an in-house automatic movement engineered to be ultra-thin, with approximately 55 hours of power reserve.

How many screws are on the Royal Oak's octagonal bezel?

Is the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 16202ST water resistant enough for swimming?

It carries a 50-meter water resistance rating, enough for splashes, rain, and incidental water exposure, but it isn't built as a dedicated dive or swimming watch.

Is the Royal Oak 16202ST still in production?

Yes. Per the manufacturer catalog data used for this fiche, the 16202ST is a current-catalog reference in active production.

What bracelet does the Royal Oak 16202ST come on?
