AP Royal Oak 50th Anniversary Chronograph - 41mm Steel

Why We Love This Watch

This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph, reference 26240ST, is the 50th Anniversary edition released in 2022 to mark half a century of Gerald Genta's landmark design. The case measures 41mm in stainless steel and retains the Royal Oak's signature octagonal bezel secured with eight hexagonal screws. The black dial appears to feature the Royal Oak's characteristic Grande Tapisserie pattern, complemented by applied baton hour markers and the integrated chronograph subdials. A date window sits at 3 o'clock. The watch is mounted on an integrated stainless steel bracelet. This reference was discontinued in 2025, making it a closed-production piece. The watch is described as unworn, sourced via an authorised luxury watch supplier. Box and papers status is unconfirmed and should be clarified prior to listing.
