You can choose from the Royal Oak in a variety of sizes. The self-winding model is available in sizes 37, 39, and 41mm. The 33mm model, however, was powered by a quartz motor.
Now, there's no need to be disappointed; u-boat replica now has a small model in its most famous line-up. This new model measures 34mm and is just a little larger than the 33mm before it. It also features a mechanical self-winding mechanism for the first time.

The new u-boat replica collection was launched with very little fanfare. However,u-boat replica during our recent visit to AP House we were able to see and photograph the new piece. There are four options for the 34mm Royal Oak: one in steel with a silver toned dial; two in steel and pink-gold, with a gold-toned and silver-toned respectively; and three in steel with a blue/grey dial with diamonds on it. The last is in pink with a silvertoned dial with diamonds on it. Each version has a date window at three o'clock, the distinctive Grand Tapisserie pattern on its dial, and the applied logo at twelve o'clock.

First Impressions
If you are used to seeing Royal Oaks larger than 39mm or 41mm, then the 34mm version may seem small. If you have ever worn the 37mm, 39mm or 41mm versions, they are ergonomically very comfortable. I know this because I have. Anyone who insists that 37mm diameter or more isn't suitable for women can close the front door.
