Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 38mm Ice Blue 26317BC.OO.1256BC.01 Watch

Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 38mm Ice Blue 26317BC.OO.1256BC.01, a full white gold limited edition sporting a cool “ice blue” dial. One of the very pleasant surprises with this 38mm edition of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph concerns the proportions. When reducing the diameter of a watch, there’s always the risk of making the case unbalanced, having an odd diameter/thickness ratio. This is especially true for automatic chronographs, known to be bulkier. Here, Audemars Piguet manages to make its Selfwinding Chronograph 38mm only 11mm in height, which is fairly thin for such a watch. More replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watches.

Debuted in 1972, designed by Gérald Genta, the stainless octagonal watch costing as much or more than a gold dress watch defined a whole new category, the so-called luxury sports watch with integrated bracelet. The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak clone collection will have to wait 1998 for a chronograph complocation to be added, in a 39mm case. Back then, it was fitted with a Frédéric Piguet automatic column-wheel chronograph movement with date. As fashions change, so do watch sizes, and the original 39mm Royal Oak Chronograph was replaced with the 41mm model in 2012. In fact, the 41mm version was the only Royal Oak Chronograph (understand here not Offshore) in the line-up, until the 38mm made its debut in 2019
