Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 41mm Steel Panda Dial - Ref. 26320ST.OO.1220ST.03

Why we love this watch

Few watches command a room quite like the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph, and this example - reference 26320ST.OO.1220ST.03 - makes its case with quiet, unmistakable authority. Presented in mint condition, this 2019 piece shows absolutely no signs of wear across its case, dial, or bracelet, making it as close to a boutique-fresh acquisition as the secondary market allows. At 41mm, the stainless steel case strikes the Royal Oak's signature balance between sporting presence and refined elegance. The iconic octagonal bezel, rendered entirely in steel with its polished and brushed alternating surfaces, frames a panda dial that is simply one of the most satisfying executions in haute horlogerie chronograph design. Crisp white registers against a contrasting backdrop, punctuated by baton hour markers and a date window positioned at 3 o'clock - every element in its rightful place. The steel integrated bracelet flows seamlessly from the case in the manner that only AP's Royal Oak can achieve, its alternating finishing a testament to the craftsmanship demanded at every stage of production. A 40-hour power reserve ensures the movement is as practically accomplished as it is mechanically distinguished, while the chronograph and date complications deliver the everyday versatility that has made this reference a cornerstone of serious watch collections worldwide. This example is offered complete with its original box and papers - the full set that collectors rightly demand and that preserves the long-term integrity of the piece. Whether you are building a definitive AP collection or acquiring your first Royal Oak, this chronograph represents an exceptional opportunity to secure one of the most coveted references in modern watchmaking at an exemplary standard of condition.
