Pure Gold

Such an underrated reference—the first Royal Oak Chronograph ever—I think I’ve never seen a post about it in this sub.

The 39mm case fits perfectly, and I love the quirkiness of the square lume plots. It gives the watch a unique look in a sea of Royal Oaks. But what really sealed the deal for me was the patina developing on the gold of this 25960BA. That warm aging effect just adds so much character.

This officially became my first Royal Oak (not counting the Offshore I picked up last month).
