Audemars Piguet Selfwinding Chronograph

Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph, reference 26240OR.OO.1320OR.08, measures 41 mm in rose gold. The case stands 6.8 mm thick and pairs with a matching rose gold bracelet and folding clasp. A sapphire crystal covers the green dial. The self-winding calibre 4401 drives the movement, which is visible through the case. This is a chronograph with flyback function, small seconds and a date window, all useful complications for a busy dial without cluttering it. The flyback allows the chronograph to be reset and restarted in one push, a practical touch for a watch built around timing. Water resistance reaches 50 metres, adequate for daily wear but not for diving.
