The replica royal oak 26240BC frosted is the flyback chronograph in full frosted white gold — 41mm of hammered precious metal that weighs substantially more than its steel counterpart but looks nearly identical from a distance. The Cal. 4401 flyback movement runs the chronograph, column wheel, and 70-hour power reserve inside a 12.4mm case. The .GG designation confirms the frosted Carolina Bucci treatment across case and bracelet. Dense, textured, and built around a properly engineered movement.
Flyback Chronograph Function
A flyback chronograph lets you reset and restart the timing function in a single push rather than the usual stop-reset-start sequence. In practice, this means consecutive timing intervals without lifting your thumb twice. The Cal. 4401 handles this through a column wheel mechanism with vertical clutch — the same architecture found in movements costing considerably more from other manufacturers.
The 70-hour power reserve is notable for a chronograph. Most automatic chronographs sit around 44 to 50 hours. The extra reserve means the replica royal oak 26240BC frosted keeps running through a long weekend without the crown. The 40-jewel movement beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour, which is the standard 4Hz frequency that balances accuracy with longevity. See our Royal Oak range for every reference currently available.
Frosted White Gold vs. Polished
The difference between this reference and the polished 26240BC comes down to surface treatment. Polished white gold reads like steel under most lighting — clean, reflective, and sharp. Frosted white gold breaks that reflection into thousands of small points. The visual distinction is obvious in person, less so in photographs.
Weight is where white gold separates from steel regardless of finish. At 19.3 g/cm³ density versus steel at roughly 8 g/cm³, this chronograph sits on the wrist with real presence. The integrated bracelet distributes that weight across the full contact area, so it does not pull or slide. For details on our exchange policy, visit the returns page.
