Royal Oak 26168 Pride of China Black

In Context

At 39 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 60 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

26168SR.OO.1220SR.01 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black dial with a rose gold, stainless steel case. It was a limited edition. Introduced in 2008.

1 other watch in the library runs the Audemars Piguet AP 3123 / 3909.
