Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Leo Messi Chronograph Pink Gold Tantalum Bezel 41mm Grey Index Dial Alligator Leather Strap 26325OL.OO.D005CR.01 - BRAND NEW

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Leo Messi Chronograph, reference 26325OL.OO.D005CR.01, stands as one of the most celebrated limited-edition timepieces the Swiss manufacture has ever released. Born from a long-standing partnership between Audemars Piguet and Argentinian football icon Leo Messi, this 41mm watch translates the emotion of the sport and the prestige of haute horlogerie into a single, wearable work of art. Offered here brand new by Bizak & Co., it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of watch history.

The Royal Oak lineage traces back to 1972, when designer Gérald Genta introduced a stainless steel sports watch with an integrated bracelet and an octagonal bezel secured by eight hexagonal screws—a concept that forever changed the definition of luxury. The Leo Messi Chronograph builds on that storied foundation while introducing materials and finishing that elevate it into an entirely different realm of desirability. Every detail of reference 26325OL.OO.D005CR.01 has been chosen to reflect both the brand's heritage and the singular status of its namesake ambassador.

The 41mm case is fashioned in 18k pink gold, a choice that lends the watch a warm, unmistakably precious presence on the wrist. Set against that warmth is the tantalum bezel—a refractory metal prized for its extraordinary density, its blue-grey hue, and its resistance to corrosion—which creates a compelling tonal contrast that is unique to this edition. The grey index dial continues the cool palette, its applied hour markers catching light with the restrained brilliance that Royal Oak enthusiasts have come to revere. An alligator leather strap completes the ensemble, softening the overall expression and making the piece equally at home in a boardroom or at a gala.

As a chronograph, this Royal Oak houses a movement engineered to the exacting standards Audemars Piguet applies across its entire manufacture lineup, delivering the split-second timing functionality that professional athletes demand and complications enthusiasts admire. The architecture of the dial—with its characteristic Grande Tapisserie pattern visible beneath the subdials—remains faithful to the original Royal Oak design language while accommodating the added complexity of the chronograph complication in a manner that feels entirely organic rather than crowded.

Owning reference 26325OL.OO.D005CR.01 means possessing a watch that transcends the already elite Royal Oak Chronograph family. Its limited-edition status, the rarity of the tantalum and pink gold material pairing, and the cultural weight of the Messi collaboration ensure that demand perpetually outpaces supply. Collectors who missed its original release understand how seldom examples appear on the market in brand-new condition. Bizak & Co. is proud to offer this timepiece with full confidence in its provenance and authenticity.
