Incoming - AP 26326ST 41mm Chrono - 26331ST Panda but Blue sub-dials!

Have been looking for this watch for a while. Finally got it! It's a limited edition release from 2016. I was originally looking for a 26331ST Panda but somehow stumbled upon the 26326ST. The blue sub-dial and the subtle Italy flag colors on the sub-dial makes it such a unique AP chrono. It looks similar to the 26315ST but 41mm. It comes with stainless steel bracelet as well as blue rubber AP straps. Can't wait!

I’ve only seen the Italy on a strap?? Looks even better on a bracelet. Best ROC dial ever—hands down. What also distinguishes from the 26331 (beyond the red white green) is the uniform sized subdials. The white is also a little less ‘shimmery’. (If my AD hadn’t come through on a 26331 this is the one I would have been chasing!) Congrats!

Thank you guys. Super stoked myself. This will be my first AP. Have been considering and looking for a royal oak for 2 years. Hopefully the patience paid off.

Watch is beautiful. Very few scratches. The previous owner really took good care of it. Little big on my wrist. I have a 6.5" wrist, so I was expecting that. Love the blue subdial.

Nice! Is it the 26315ST? The blue panda sub-dial is such a unique beauty. What's your wrist size? Would love to see a pic?

Always loved the 26315ST but at 38mm it was just too small for me.

But I completely love this Italian Edition and I am so super jealous. Enjoy
