Catalogue Essay
Launched in 2004 and in production until 2018, reference 26022 was a dressier version of the Royal Oak chronograph reference 25860 as it featured a leather strap and was available only in precious metals.
The present watch is in superb condition. It seems that the original owner only wore it once or twice before deciding to leave it safe in its box. Featuring a more dressy appeal than the version with bracelet, this extremely attractive and charismatic chronograph in pink gold displays a silver tapisserie dial with contrasting subdials and is further complemented by a warm brown crocodile strap. Presented complete with its original box and papers it is an excellent opportunity to own a modern piece that combines at its best elegance and sportiveness.
