Features a Gorgeous Brushed Anthracite Grey Dial with White Gold Applied Hour-Markers and Luminescent Royal Oak Hands, Hand-stitched “Large Square Scale” Anthracite Grey Alligator Strap with Foldover Deployant Buckle, 41mm.

The 41mm diameter hexagonal solid three-body case, hooded lugs, and flat hexagonal bezel with 8 polished hex-head face screws and polished beveled edges, are polished/brushed. The dial is an extremely rare anthracite grey with applied faceted white gold baton hour indices with luminous inserts, and around the perimeter is a luminous minute/one-fifth second scale. It has faceted white gold Royal Oak baton hands with luminous inserts, a center sweep chronograph second hand with a skeletonized counterbalance, and there is a date aperture window between 4 and 5 o'clock. It includes three recessed silver subsidiary dials with Arabic numerals, and white gold indicator hands, including a 12-hour chronograph totalizer at 9 o'clock, a running small seconds register at 6 o'clock, and there is a 30-minute chronograph totalizer at the 3 o'clock position.

This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph 26325TS.OO.D005CR.01 has a mechanical automatic self-winding AP Caliber 2385 column wheel chronograph movement. It's rhodium plated with fausses cotes embellishment, and it's constructed with 37 jewels, 304 components, and a shock absorber device. The mechanism oscillates at a frequency of 21,600 vph (3 Hz).

At first glance, the Leo Messi Royal Oak Chronograph captivates with its striking design. The brushed anthracite grey dial serves as the canvas for this horological work of art, providing the perfect backdrop for the white gold applied hour-markers that elegantly grace its surface.

Complementing the dial is a hand-stitched "Large Square Scale" anthracite grey alligator strap, exuding sophistication and luxury. The meticulous craftsmanship of the strap is evident in every detail, from the stitching to the texture, making it as comfortable to wear as it is stylish. The foldover deployant buckle offers a secure and seamless closure, enhancing the overall wearing experience.
