The 56343BA represents one of the rarest gem-set Royal Oaks ever produced and was conceived during the era when Audemars Piguet first explored the full potential of high-jewelry execution within Gérald Genta's 1972 architecture, the reference applies extensive diamond-setting across virtually every visible surface: case, bezel, dial, and bracelet. The integration of the signature hexagonal bezel screws within a fully diamond-set octagonal bezel remains an extraordinary technical feat of gem-setting, securing this reference's standing as a true collector's grail.

The compact 24mm case in 18-karat yellow gold features the signature octagonal bezel pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds, with the hexagonal screws appearing as graphic accents amidst the gem-setting. The diamond-paved dial carries the applied AP logo at twelve, slim black baton hands, and a date aperture at three. The integrated yellow gold Royal Oak bracelet is lavishly set with baguette-cut diamonds alongside extensive brilliant-cut paving, completed by an AP folding clasp and driven by a precision quartz movement.
