Description
APSF Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 26240CE Ceramic
It stands as the current forum consensus for the most accurate black ceramic Royal Oak available.
Powered by Super Clone 4401 Integrated Chronograph
The transition from modular chronographs to a fully integrated clone caliber marks a paradigm shift for this specific reference. The Super Clone 4401 correctly positions the balance wheel at the 7 o��clock orientation, eliminating the sunken date wheel and excess case thickness associated with modified 7750 movements. Before dispatch, all mechanical components are verified against to ensure pusher engagement is crisp and the flyback mechanism operates smoothly.
�� Accuracy Profile:
Standard clone chronograph regulation typically yields 卤10��15 s/day. Amplitude remains stable across varying states of wind due to the integrated architecture.
- �� Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- �� Complications: Hours, minutes, small seconds, date, flyback chronograph
- �� Winding Direction: Unidirectional
Technical Specifications
THE BUILDHigh-tech Black Ceramic
The 41mm case achieves the genuine 12.4mm thickness, largely due to the integrated movement. Alternating brushed and polished finishing is executed precisely across the ceramic surfaces.
THE DIALBlack Grande Tapisserie
Features deep, three-dimensional squares with rose gold-toned hands. While our system notes a specific accent code, the dial correctly presents an all-black backdrop matching the authentic 26240CE.
THE BEZELFull Black Ceramic
Secured by eight white gold-plated hexagonal screws, the bezel exhibits sharp vertical brushing with highly polished, mirror-like flanks.
THE BRACELETIntegrated Ceramic
Tolerances on the integrated bracelet fit are exceptionally tight, minimizing endplay at the lug junctions and maintaining the stiff drape characteristic of the genuine article.
Why APS Factory for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: ��Why not OMF or ZF?��
Older versions from competing factories relied on modified Valjoux 7750 movements, forcing the case thickness well past 14mm to accommodate the modular chronograph plates. APSF��s utilization of the integrated 4401 clone allows this model to sit at the correct 12.4mm thickness, fundamentally changing how the watch wears on the wrist.
Full Disclosure: The edges of the inner ceramic bracelet links lack the final ultra-smooth chamfering found on the genuine piece, making them feel slightly sharper against the skin, and the rotor can be audible during rapid wrist movement.

Collector Q&A
Q: Does the chronograph function exactly like the genuine caliber 4401?
A: Yes, the APSF utilizes an integrated 4401 clone movement, meaning the chronograph is fully functional with the correct sub-dial spacing and flyback capability, rather than being a decorative modular add-on.
Q: How does the weight of this ceramic replica compare to the genuine 26240CE?
A: This APSF edition weighs approximately 160.8g, which is remarkably close to the genuine ceramic model��s weight, providing a highly accurate wrist presence compared to lighter PVD-coated steel alternatives.
Q: Can the ceramic bracelet be sized easily?
A: The ceramic links are secured with standard pins and tubes, but extreme care must be taken during sizing. Ceramic is highly scratch-resistant but brittle under lateral stress; we strongly recommend having a professional watchmaker perform the sizing.
Q: What is the main known flaw with this APSF reference?
A: While the case dimensions and movement architecture are class-leading, the rotor can be slightly noisy during rapid wrist movement, and the edges of the inner ceramic bracelet links lack the final ultra-smooth chamfering found on the genuine piece.
