Hands On: Review the New Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 41mm Blue Chronograph Replica

To celebrate Royal Oak's 50th anniversary, the Swiss fine watchmaker has launched a new 41mm self-winding chronograph replica. The new reference features improvements in case, bracelet and dial design that enhance the contemporary appeal of the collection. Designed with diminished appeal, the timepiece can now be worn more comfortably on the wrist and presents attractive reflections of satin and polished surfaces. Let's take a look at the new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak self-winding 41mm blue chronograph replica 26240OR.OO.1320OR.01, powered by the caliber 4401.

The Case

Audemars Piguet's mastery of craftsmanship is a testament to the manufacturer's ancestral know-how. Elegant and daring, the replica Royal Oak in pink gold is always elegant and avant-garde. Eight new models in pink gold, 41 mm, have been added to the replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak self-winding chronograph collection. The ref. 26240OR.OO.1320OR.01 replica is a playful design that combines the gold and blue tones of the watch. It is housed in an 18-carat pink gold case with a "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" dial with "Grande Tapisserie" motif, a "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" chronograph dial and a "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" dial, Nuage 50" counters, pink gold hour-markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating. This charming and elegant model is water-resistant to 50 meters and is fitted with an 18-carat pink gold bracelet and an AP folding clasp.

The Dial

Another important detail is the color of the dial. Blue? Well, of course, it's objectively blue. But it's also more than just any blue. It's a special shade of blue that the Associated Press has dubbed "Bleu nuit nuage 50" - a hue created specifically for the 50th anniversary model. The rich dark blue of the Grande Tapisserie dial is complemented by the rose gold details on and around it. This includes the watch's central hand, hour markers, application logo, chronograph hand and the gold ring surrounding the subdial. You will also find a little white, mainly in the luminescence of the hands and hour-markers, as well as in the external minute track and all the markers in the chronograph register.

The Movement

The movement beats in a Audemars Piguet 41 mm self-winding chronograph replica in stainless steel and rose gold Audemars Piguet Royal Oak replica, demonstrating the chronograph expertise of Audemars Piguet's craftsmen. Offering an impressive power reserve of approximately 70 hours, this internally integrated chronograph is equipped with a flyback function and includes an instantaneous date change mechanism in addition to a column wheel and vertical clutch system. The self-winding movement measures 32 mm in diameter and 6.8 mm in thickness and is equipped with a special "50th anniversary" oscillating weight.

In addition to its powerful performance, the engine features refined finishes including Côtes de Genève, satin-brushed, circular graining, circular satin and polished bevels, all of which are visible through the sapphire caseback.
