Description
Black ceramic transforms the legendary Royal Oak into something entirely different on the wrist, where the 32mm case of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 26238CE.OO.1300CE.02 delivers technical stealth with unmistakable presence. The “Méga Tapisserie” dial earns its nickname through an amplified version of the Royal Oak’s signature tapisserie pattern, creating deeper shadows and more pronounced texture than its traditional counterpart. Introduced as part of Audemars Piguet’s ceramic exploration, this 2025 unworn example represents the manufacture’s commitment to advanced materials while preserving Gérald Genta’s original octagonal architecture. The integrated black ceramic bracelet maintains the seamless flow from case to wrist that defines every Royal Oak, executed here in a material that’s virtually scratchproof and feather-light.
