Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 26240OR.OO.D404CR.01 41mm
Description of the Watch
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph “50th Anniversary” Ref. 26240OR.OO.D404CR.01 is an exquisite celebration of half a century since the debut of the Royal Oak line. Crafted in 18-carat rose gold, it showcases a vibrant khaki-green “Grande Tapisserie” dial, an elegant alligator leather strap, and a commemorative “50‑years” oscillating weight all encased in a 41 mm frame .
Overview
Released in 2022 to mark the 50th anniversary of the Royal Oak, this model represents a modern evolution of the iconic design. It employs AP’s refined chronograph architecture within the legendary octagonal bezel, marrying vintage appeal with contemporary craftsmanship. The calibrated Caliber 4401 flyback chronograph movement completes the package .
Design and Craftsmanship
The 41 mm rose-gold case combines satin-brushed and polished finishes, perfectly framing the rich khaki dial and matching green alligator strap . The “Grande Tapisserie” guilloché dial creates depth, while rose-gold applied baton markers and hands imbued with luminescence ensure clarity and elegance. A sapphire caseback reveals the commemorative winding rotor, underscoring the piece’s special edition status .
Movement and Performance
At its core beats the in-house Caliber 4401, a self-winding flyback chronograph movement featuring a column wheel and vertical clutch. Operating at 28,800 vph with a 70-hour power reserve, it delivers precision timing and smooth operation.
