“The Holy Grail of Sport Watches.”
The Royal Sports Perpetual Calendar is the definitive answer to the question: “Can a sports watch be elegant?” It combines the rugged, industrial aesthetic of the octagonal case with one of the most prestigious complications in watchmaking. At just 9.5mm thick, it sits incredibly low on the wrist, sliding effortlessly under a cuff despite its complex mechanics.
Design & Craftsmanship
The Tapisserie Dial:
The dial features the iconic “Grande Tapisserie” style pattern—a grid of raised squares that plays with light and shadow. The deep blue color serves as the perfect backdrop for the four sub-dials, ensuring that the wealth of information remains legible and organized.
A Complete Calendar:
This watch knows the length of every month, including leap years. It displays the Day (9 o’clock), Date (3 o’clock), and Month/Leap Year (12 o’clock). Unique to this model is the Week of the Year indication, pointed out by a central arrow hand along the dial’s perimeter—a useful feature for modern business planning.
Integrated Architecture:
The magic lies in the bracelet. The brushed steel links taper perfectly from the case to the clasp, reflecting light with every movement. The octagonal bezel with its eight hexagonal screws defines the look, creating an industrial-chic aesthetic that has defined luxury for decades.

On The Wrist
