Created in 2003 to mark both the 30th anniversary of the Royal Oak and the America\u2019s Cup victory of Team Alinghi, the watch features a stainless steel case, grey dial, and bold black numerals, and, more significantly, it incorporates sailing-inspired details. The limited-edition nature of the City of Sails makes it particularly exclusive, and the Royal\u2019s selection of it is a nod to his long-standing connection with competitive sailing.<\/p>\n<p>7.
