Every New Audemars Piguet for 2026: New Calibres and a Summer of Colour
Last updated: July 31, 2026
Audemars Piguet's new watches for 2026 arrived in three waves. February brought the Neo Frame Jumping Hour and the 150 Heritage pocket watch. April brought a full slate at Watches and Wonders Geneva, AP's first appearance there since it left SIHH in 2019. June and July brought nine Royal Oak Offshore references in summer colours, three of them Divers. At least five new calibres arrived: the 7122, 7138, 7139, 6401, and 1150.
Two of those movements change how the watch is used. The 7139 and 7138 perpetual calendars set every calendar function from the crown, with no tools and no case-side correctors.

The 2026 Headliners
Three pieces carry most of the year: a rectangular jumping hour, two openworked perpetual calendars on a new crown-set calibre, and a platinum pocket watch with 30 complications.
Neo Frame Jumping Hour
The Neo Frame is a new rectangular line based on Pre-model 1271, a Streamline Moderne design AP built in 1929 and 1930 in a run of 14 pieces. The 18-carat pink gold case is 34 by 47.1 mm and 8.8 mm thick. A single piece of black PVD-treated sapphire forms the front, so the hour aperture at 12 and the minute arc at 6 appear to float.
Inside is Calibre 7122, AP's first self-winding jumping hour, derived from the 7121: 4 Hz, a 52-hour reserve, 293 components, and a patented shock absorber that stops a knock tripping the hour disc. Retail is CHF 56,300, EUR 64,900, and $71,200.
Calibre 7139: perpetual calendars you set from the crown
Calibre 7139 is the one we would point a collector toward first: a self-winding openworked perpetual calendar, 4.1 mm thick, 4 Hz, 55-hour reserve, 423 components, correcting every calendar function through four crown positions in both directions. That replaces the case-side pushers and correction stylus perpetual calendar owners have lived with for decades.
It debuts in two 41 mm watches: the Code 11.59 Perpetual Calendar Openworked in white gold and black ceramic, and the Royal Oak version in titanium and Bulk Metallic Glass. We went deeper on the pair in our Calibre 7139 breakdown.
150 Heritage pocket watch
The 150 Heritage marks AP's 150th anniversary and is the most complicated piece the house showed all year. The hand-wound Calibre 1150 carries 47 functions across 30 complications, among them a Supersonnerie grande sonnerie, a minute repeater, and a flying tourbillon. Two hand-engraved platinum examples were made, each unique.
The Summer Offshore Drop
In June and July, AP put nine new references into the Royal Oak Offshore: three 42 mm chronographs, three 37 mm chronographs, and three 42 mm Divers. What changed is dials, accent colours, straps, and in the 37 mm the calibre.
Royal Oak Offshore Diver (three references)
All three Divers are 42 mm stainless steel, rated to 300 m, on Calibre 4308 with a 60-hour reserve, with the inner rotating bezel driven by the crown at ten o'clock.
We have had two of the three in hand. The pink accent Diver pairs a black Méga Tapisserie dial with a pink inner-bezel track and a white rubber strap, and it is the loudest of the set. Ours came with a second pink rubber strap in the box. The turquoise runs the same dial with a turquoise bezel and strap, and weighed 176.2 grams on our scale on the rubber strap. We went through both on camera in our pink accent unboxing and turquoise unboxing. We have not handled the teal, which swaps in a teal dial with gold-toned hands. All three were reported at $32,900 (European Watch Company, July 2026).
The pink-accent and turquoise Divers together. These are the two of the three 2026 references we have had in hand.
The pink-accent Diver, ref. 15720ST.OO.A010CA.01: dial, Méga Tapisserie detail, on the wrist, and the second pink strap in the box.
The turquoise Diver, ref. 15720ST.OO.A355CA.01: dial, the two black ceramic crowns, full lume, and 176.2 grams on our scale.
Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph, 42 mm (three references)
The 42 mm trio keeps the Méga Tapisserie dial, the oversized Arabic numerals, and Calibre 4404, AP's integrated flyback chronograph with a 70-hour reserve. Cases are 42 by 15.3 mm on calfskin straps.
Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph, 37 mm (three references)
The 37 mm case gets Calibre 6401, which AP introduced earlier in 2026 in the Royal Oak Chronograph 38 mm: 4 Hz, 55-hour reserve, in a case 37 by 11.5 mm. Dials use the standard Tapisserie, a finer grid than the Méga Tapisserie.
Prices are as reported: US figures from European Watch Company (July 2026), Swiss francs from Monochrome (June 2026). We take retail from public sources.

Royal Oak and Code 11.59 Updates
Outside the summer drop, the Royal Oak took most of the year's attention in April. The Royal Oak Selfwinding Chronograph 38 mm is where Calibre 6401 first appeared, in steel and in two pink gold versions. The 6401 replaces Calibre 2385, which had done this job since 1997, and the case gains a sapphire caseback for the first time. UK pricing ran £33,900 to £72,100 (Oracle of Time, 2026).
Two Royal Oak Selfwinding references arrived with polished malachite dials in 18-carat yellow gold, at 41 mm and 37 mm. Malachite bands as it crystallises, so every dial is different.
The Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar in "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" is 41 mm and made entirely in ceramic, running Calibre 7138 with the same crown correction. We filmed it for our Bleu Nuit ceramic unboxing.
Also new: a Jumbo Openworked 39 mm in titanium and Bulk Metallic Glass on Calibre 7124, a Double Balance Wheel Openworked 37 mm in yellow gold on Calibre 3132, two Royal Oak Mini 23 mm quartz references, and two 43 mm Offshore Chronographs on Calibre 4401, in Bleu Nuit ceramic and in titanium and black ceramic.
Code 11.59 got two 38 mm Selfwinding references in pink gold on Calibre 5900, one black-dialled and one silver, plus a 41 mm Flying Tourbillon on Calibre 2950 with a black ceramic mid-case and a hand-engraved ivory dial.
AP also used its return to Geneva to launch the Atelier des Établisseurs, a revival of the 18th-century Vallée de Joux établissage model. Three pieces debuted: the Galets, an offset oval stone dial; the Nomade, convertible between pocket watch and table clock; and the Peacock, which opens from a beetle into a peacock.

What AP Didn't Release
No new Offshore case came with the summer drop. All nine work within cases AP already had.
Nothing AP retired earlier in 2026 came back either, which we catalogued in our guide to the Royal Oak references AP just discontinued. One correction: the black ceramic Offshore Music Edition (77600CE.OO.A002CA.01) gets asked about as a 2026 piece and is not one. It was a 2022 limited edition of 250, and we have filmed that watch.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AP Neo Frame?
The Neo Frame is a rectangular Audemars Piguet line launched in February 2026, based on Pre-model 1271 from 1929. Reference 15245OR.OO.A206VE.01 measures 34 by 47.1 mm in pink gold with a black sapphire front, and runs Calibre 7122, AP's first self-winding jumping hour movement.
What's new in the 2026 Royal Oak Offshore lineup?
Nine references arrived in June and July 2026: three 42 mm chronographs on Calibre 4404 with orange, pink, and turquoise-and-yellow accents; three 37 mm chronographs on Calibre 6401 in turquoise, pink, and light blue; and three 42 mm Divers on Calibre 4308 in pink, turquoise, and teal.
How much is the 2026 AP Offshore Diver?
All three 2026 Royal Oak Offshore Divers were reported at $32,900 (European Watch Company, July 2026). Each is 42 mm stainless steel, water resistant to 300 m, with Calibre 4308 and a 60-hour power reserve. The references are 15720ST.OO.A010CA.01, 15720ST.OO.A355CA.01, and 15720ST.OO.A403CA.01.
Did Audemars Piguet attend Watches and Wonders 2026?
Yes. AP exhibited at Watches and Wonders Geneva from April 14 to 20, 2026, its first appearance at the Geneva fair since leaving SIHH in 2019. It used the show to launch the Atelier des Établisseurs, a programme reviving the collaborative établissage model of the 18th-century Vallée de Joux.
Can I buy the 2026 Audemars Piguet models now?
Authorized allocations on new AP references are limited and slow to reach buyers, so grey market examples from non-authorized dealers usually surface first. Watches Off 5th carries pre-owned Audemars Piguet across the Royal Oak and Royal Oak Offshore collections, and we can source specific references on request.
