This Royal Oak 26240 selfwinding chronograph pairs a 41mm 316L stainless steel case with a Bleu Nuit Grande Tapisserie dial and integrated steel bracelet. Its Super Clone Caliber 4401 uses an integrated column-wheel chronograph layout with flyback function, date, small seconds, and approximately 36 hours of power reserve, all within a stated 12.0mm case profile.
Royal Oak 26240 with Bleu Nuit Grande Tapisserie Dial
This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26240 Selfwinding Chronograph is built around the details that define this specific configuration. The watch features a 41mm 316L stainless steel case, a stated 12.0mm thickness, and a 51.5mm lug-to-lug measurement. On the dial side, the signature layout is presented in Bleu Nuit with a Grande Tapisserie pattern and concentric snailing inside the sub-dials. A date display and small seconds complete the dial’s functional layout alongside the chronograph registers.
The stainless steel construction continues across the integrated bracelet, giving this reference the unified case-and-bracelet form associated with the 26240. The listed weight is 170g, adding a substantial metal presence to the watch without changing the clean proportions of the case profile.
Integrated Column-Wheel 4401 Chronograph Movement
Powering this piece is the Super Clone Caliber 4401, an integrated chronograph movement built around a true column-wheel architecture. This movement is central to the watch’s configuration because it supports the correct sub-dial spacing while preserving the stated 12.0mm thickness of the case. It also delivers a fully functional flyback chronograph, allowing the chronograph to be reset while running.
In addition to the flyback chronograph, the movement includes a date complication and small seconds. The rotor winds in both directions, and the power reserve is approximately 36 hours. The movement is visible through a sapphire exhibition caseback, where the rotor is finished with engravings and perlage.
316L Steel Case, Octagonal Bezel, and Sapphire Crystal
The case and bezel are both executed in 316L stainless steel. The bezel is described with correct vertical brushing and polished flanks, reinforcing the contrast between flat surfaces and reflective edges. The octagonal bezel also features eight recessed hexagonal white gold-plated screws. Across the exterior, alternating brushed and polished finishing gives the watch a precise, technical appearance in line with this chronograph layout.
Over the dial sits a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a colorless anti-reflective coating. The combination of sapphire and anti-reflective treatment keeps attention on the Bleu Nuit dial texture and the structure of the chronograph display. White gold-plated hands are filled with Super-LumiNova for low-light legibility.
Integrated 316L Stainless Steel Bracelet
This 26240 is fitted with an integrated 316L stainless steel bracelet with alternating brushed and polished finishing. The bracelet is secured by a double deployant clasp, keeping the overall design consistent from case to clasp. The linked steel construction is part of what makes this reference immediately recognizable within the Royal Oak chronograph lineup.
Because the bracelet and case are designed as a single visual system, the transitions between the links, bezel, and mid-case matter as much as the dial and movement. Here, the emphasis remains on the exact measurements, integrated construction, and movement architecture that set this 26240 configuration apart.
