The APSF V1 Royal Oak Chronograph 26240OR White Dial is one of the cleanest and most elegant configurations in the modern Royal Oak Chronograph collection. Combining the warmth of a rose gold case and bracelet with a crisp white Grande Tapisserie dial, this reference offers a sophisticated appearance while maintaining the sporty character that defines the Royal Oak platform.
Crafted with a 41mm rose gold-finished case and matching integrated bracelet, the watch delivers exceptional wrist presence while remaining comfortable enough for everyday wear. The iconic octagonal bezel, secured by exposed hexagonal screws, remains one of the most recognizable designs in luxury watchmaking and continues to define the Royal Oak collection.
The centerpiece of this configuration is its stunning white Grande Tapisserie dial. The intricate textured pattern creates exceptional depth and dimensionality while reflecting light beautifully across the dial surface. Depending on lighting conditions, the dial displays subtle silver, ivory, and bright white tones, creating a refined and constantly evolving appearance.
The updated 26240 dial layout features balanced white chronograph subdials and a date display positioned between 4 and 5 o'clock. The monochromatic dial design creates a clean and highly legible aesthetic, while applied rose gold hour markers and matching hands provide excellent contrast against the bright dial surface.
Powering the watch is the SA4401 Super Clone Automatic Chronograph Movement. Designed to replicate the architecture and functionality of the genuine AP Calibre 4401, the movement features automatic winding, true flyback chronograph functionality, hacking seconds, quick-set date adjustment, and an integrated chronograph design. The SA4401 remains one of the most technically advanced AP clone movements available and is widely regarded as the benchmark movement for the 26240 platform.
As a V1 model, this version utilizes the original SA4401 balance architecture rather than the upgraded free-sprung balance wheel found in the later V2 generation. However, it retains the same integrated flyback chronograph functionality and movement layout that made the APSF 26240 platform such a significant advancement.
The integrated rose gold-finished bracelet remains one of the defining characteristics of the Royal Oak design. Its combination of brushed and polished surfaces creates exceptional visual contrast while providing outstanding flexibility and comfort on the wrist.
