Anant was surely grateful to have his close friends around at the wedding. So grateful that he wanted to present his groomsmen with a special gift. With this gift, he wanted to express his own love for watches while also getting them something extremely special that they will remember forever. Hence, Anant put up a request at Audemars Piguet to get a set of 25 Special Limited Edition models that only his friends would get.
Since this was a model made on request, we do not have much information about it. From the pictures seen on social media, it looks to be a limited edition variant of the APRoyal Oak Perpetual Calendar 26584OR. The watch features a 41mm 18k Rose Gold Dial that sits inside a Rose Gold case. The dark blue sub-dials create a nice contrast while also bringing your attention towards the moon phase indicator.
