The AP Royal Oak Frosted Gold Double Balance Wheel Openworked 15412BC replica (ref. 15412BC.YG.1224BC.03-B) is the jewellery take on the skeleton Royal Oak: a 41 mm case and bracelet with a glittering frosted surface and a rainbow bezel of baguette stones. Audemars Piguet introduced the Frosted Gold “Rainbow” in 2021; the frosted finish, developed with Florentine jeweller Carolina Bucci, is hammered into the metal so it sparkles like fine dust. On this super clone the bezel is stone-set with coloured baguettes running from red at 12 through yellow, green and blue to violet and pink, around a slate grey openworked movement. The case and bracelet have a frosted white gold look; the genuine is hammered 18K white gold set with gemstones.

Frosted Rainbow 15412BC vs Black Ceramic 15416CE

Both are 41 mm Double Balance Wheel Openworked models built around the genuine Calibre 3132 (3 Hz, 45 hours), with hours, minutes and centre seconds over a slate grey skeleton. They differ in everything you notice from across a room. The genuine 15412BC is 10.1 mm thick against 9.7 mm for the 15416CE, and its frosted surface and coloured bezel sparkle where the ceramic stays brushed-and-polished black. The steel 15407ST sits between them as the plain sports version. Choose the Frosted Rainbow if you want a statement piece for evenings and events; choose the 15416CE or the 15407ST if you want a skeleton watch to wear every day.

Are the rainbow stones on this Royal Oak replica real sapphires?

No. The bezel of our watch is stone-set with coloured baguette stones; the genuine 15412BC uses 32 baguette-cut gemstones in twelve shades, including rubies, emeralds and sapphires.

Is the Frosted Rainbow Royal Oak super clone a men’s size?

Yes, 41 mm is the larger of the two sizes: Audemars Piguet also made the Frosted Gold Double Balance Wheel in 37 mm (ref. 15468) for smaller wrists, so this one is the version for a typical men’s wrist.

Other Double Balance Wheel Openworked versions in stock: the all-black ceramic 15416CE, the steel 15407ST and the 15407OR in rose gold tone. See the full AP Royal Oak replica collection.
