Today, silently without any press release, Audemars Piguet adds up a black full ceramic Royal Oak Chrono ref. 26240CE.OO.1225CE.01. The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph has seen many iterations and facelifts since its launch in 1997-1998 under reference 25860. Perhaps the most significant up until now took place in 2016 when the Royal Oak Chrono reference 26300 went from a 39 mm case to a 41 mm as reference 26320. A few months ago, Audemars Piguet presented a new lineup to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Royal Oak.
This all-black 41 mm Royal Oak Chronograph fully crafted in black ceramic and contrasted with subtle pink gold accents is endowed with the collection’s latest design evolution and “50-year” anniversary oscillating weight. The new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 50th Anniversary ref. 26240CE in black ceramic is powered by the latest generation in-house chronograph movement, the automatic Calibre 4401, visible through the watch’s sapphire case back.
