About This Watch
The Audemars Piguet CODE 11.59 Chronograph 26393OR adds flyback chronograph functionality to the innovative CODE 11.59 case architecture. The caliber 4401 is AP's latest in-house flyback chronograph, featuring a column wheel mechanism with a 70-hour power reserve that matches the latest Royal Oak Chronograph for technical specification. The chronograph pushers are elegantly integrated into the curved case at 2 and 4 o'clock, maintaining the clean lines of the CODE 11.59 design. The blue fumé dial features two sub-registers for the 30-minute counter and 12-hour counter, with a small seconds at 6 o'clock. The double-curved sapphire crystal creates a unique visual effect over the chronograph sub-dials, adding depth and dimension. The 41mm rose gold case showcases the collection's signature octagonal middle section visible in profile, and the case finishing includes a meticulous combination of brushed and polished surfaces. The CODE 11.59 Chronograph represents AP's most refined expression of the flyback chronograph complication, housed in a case design that challenges conventional watch aesthetics. It has found favor among collectors seeking something distinctively different from the sports watch mainstream.
