The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph ref. 26317BC.OO.1256BC.01 in 18K white gold is powered by the automatic movement calibre 2385 based off of the legendary Frederic Piguet calibre 1185 —also used on the Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph as caliber 1137 and the Breguet Marine Chronograph as calibre 576.
