Overview

The Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Selfwinding Chronograph 41 in 18k rose gold, reference 26393OR, pairs the collection's distinctive octagonal middle case with an in-house integrated chronograph movement. Offered in lacquered dials across black, blue, and smoked variants, the 41mm case strikes a balance between contemporary design language and traditional haute horlogerie finishing. It represents one of the most technically ambitious expressions within the Code 11.59 family.

History

The Code 11.59 collection was introduced by Audemars Piguet in 2019, marking the manufacture's first entirely new collection in decades and signalling a deliberate step beyond the Royal Oak's long shadow. The reference 26393OR arrived as part of this inaugural wave, positioning rose gold as a natural complement to the collection's warm, sculptural case architecture. Calibre 4401, developed in-house, was engineered specifically for the Code 11.59 chronograph models, underscoring the manufacture's commitment to vertical integration. The collection has continued to expand its dial palette and material combinations since launch, cementing the Code 11.59 as a serious long-term pillar of the AP catalogue.

Notable points

  • The octagonal middle case is sandwiched between a round bezel and round caseback, creating a layered geometric silhouette unique to the Code 11.59 line.
  • Calibre 4401 is a manufacture movement featuring a column-wheel chronograph mechanism and a flyback function, wound by a peripheral rotor.
  • The 18k rose gold construction extends to the case, crown, and pushers, giving the reference a cohesive warm-metal presentation.
  • Dial variants — black, blue, and smoked — are produced in lacquered form, each offering a distinct character while sharing the same architectural subdial layout.
  • Code 11.59 was Audemars Piguet's first wholly new collection introduced in the 21st century, making the 26393OR part of a historically significant product launch for the manufacture.
