Royal Oak Repeater Supersonnerie Black Ceramic / Black / Rubber

In Context

At 42 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 14 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 20 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

The movement is hand-wound, so winding it becomes part of the day rather than something the watch does for you. 72 hours of reserve puts it well past a weekend — several days off the wrist and it is still going. At 21,600 vph the seconds hand advances 6 times a second, the slower and more audible rate of an older design.

26591CE.OO.D002CA.02 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a black guilloche dial with a titanium, ceramic case. Introduced in 2023.
