The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph ref. 26326ST.OO.D027CA.01, known as the“
Pride of Italy,” is a limited edition of 500 pieces produced for the Italian market
in 2016. The caseback confirms the edition number engraved alongside “Royal Oak 
Limited Edition” and “Swiss Made” — a detail that separates this reference from 
the standard Royal Oak Chronograph lineup. The 41mm stainless steel case retains
the Royal Oak’s defining architecture: an octagonal bezel secured by eight hexagonal
screws, alternating brushed and polished surfaces, and integrated pushers flanking
the crown at three o’clock. The dial is the defining feature. A white Grande Tapisserie-
patterned main plate provides the backdrop, while three navy blue subsidiary registers—
hours at nine, minutes at six, and seconds at twelve — deliver a crisp panda-style
contrast. The Italian tricolor appears as small green and red markers within the
chronograph subdials, the subtle national reference that gives this edition its 
name. A date aperture sits at four o’clock. Baton hour markers and applied indices
complete the layout. The movement is automatic, with caliber 2385 confirmed on the
original papers dated September 5, 2016, sold through Succ. Dobner di Oppenheim 
in Trieste. The watch is presented on a dark navy rubber strap and includes the 
additional Audemars Piguet blue alligator strap. Excellent condition with Audemars
Piguet box, papers dated 2016, and additional blue alligator strap.
