The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26591CE.OO.D002CA.01 Minute Repeater Supersonnerie combines haute horlogerie and high-performance materials in a 42 mm black ceramic case that stands among the most technically daring Royal Oaks ever made. Its “Grande Tapisserie” black dial is paneled with applied white-gold hour markers and luminescent hands, offering a restrained contrast to the case’s ultra-modern execution. Minute repeater gongs are acoustically optimized using a proprietary Supersonnerie system, with case-back vents designed to enhance sound transmission—ensuring volume and clarity, even in ceramic.

With its clean, rubber strap complementing the case, it blends discreet sportiness with acoustic refinement. For connoisseurs focused on mechanical achievement and refined understatement, the 26591CE.OO.D002CA.01 represents a singular expression of AP’s engineering capabilities: delivering dramatic sound, ceramic construction, and Supreme collectibility.

Crafted in 42 mm black ceramic, the Royal Oak Minute Repeater Supersonnerie incorporates Audemars Piguet’s advanced acoustics technology into the iconic octagonal case. At 14 mm thick, the scratch-resistant ceramic case wearer features a glareproof sapphire crystal and screw‑locked crown, offering water resistance to 20 m. The black Grande Tapisserie dial is fitted with applied white‑gold hour markers and luminescent Royal Oak hands, framing a discreet small‑seconds subdial and preserving the clarity of minute repeater activation.

This reference is built around the manually wound Caliber AP 2953, a 362‑part movement beating at 3 Hz with a 72‑hour power reserve. Its patented Supersonnerie architecture—featuring a titanium membrane soundboard and case‑back apertures—significantly enhances the volume and purity of the chime, allowing for exceptional acoustic resonance despite the ceramic construction. The minute repeater function chimes hours, quarter hours, and minutes, while the manually wound format preserves both technical complexity and traditional hit‑feel.

The watch is paired with a black rubber strap secured by a titanium AP folding clasp, reinforcing the piece’s sporty elegance. This model is notable for being the first Royal Oak fitted with both Supersonnerie and an all‑ceramic case—a rare fusion of chime sophistication and modern material engineering. It stands at the crossroads of AP’s technical mastery and refined innovation, offering collectors a minute repeater experience unlike any other in the Royal Oak family.
