"Ref.26331ST.OO.1220ST.01"
This is a current model with a refreshing impression of the blue dial with a tapestry pattern and the white sub-dials, and an attractive design with a dignified look. Originally, there was a "Ref. 26320ST" with the same size and movement, but it was slightly changed in 2017 and released with a panda dial. The movement is the "Cal. 2385", which has been used in various models as the core chronograph of [Audemars Piguet] for many years .
The style of wearing it casually, like that of Takanori Iwata, a member of the same group who appears on his Instagram account "Iwa-chan," tickles the masculine heart. High-end models look great on him.

[Audemars Piguet] "Royal Oak"
"Ref.15400ST.OO.1220ST.01"
This is a model released in 2012, with the word "AUTOMATIC" written at the 6 o'clock position on the dial, and a black dial with a Grand Tapisserie pattern that gives an elegant impression. The case diameter has been increased from 39mm, which has been the case since the first generation, to 41mm, but the thickness is ultra-thin at less than 10mm. This gives it a very dressy impression. The movement is the famous "Cal.3120" that was released in 2003, which achieves a long power reserve of 60 hours. Even after more than 10 years, it still has an unfading charm.
This authentic piece is a highly versatile model that can be worn with anything from the jacket styles that Miura wears to street styles.

The third person is the actor who also works as a news anchor, " Tanihara Shosuke "
Currently, Tanihara, who is the MC of Fuji TV's "Morning Face" program "Mezamashi 8", shows off a nice suit style every time. The Royal Oak that Tanihara wears, which suits him so well, is a popular chronograph model with a 39mm case size.

This watch features a white dial with a Grand Tapisserie pattern, a three-counter chronograph and black hands, creating a simple yet elegant design. Compared to the sporty Royal Oak Offshore, this watch is smaller and thinner, and is full of elegance, making it the ultimate all-purpose model that can be used in formal situations as well.
The 39mm size fits comfortably under the sleeves of a suit or shirt, making it the perfect watch for Tanihara, who wears suits with style.

This model, which is one generation older than Shohei Miura's "Ref. 15400ST" introduced earlier, is a masterpiece that was released in 2005 and solidified the popularity of the Royal Oak. It features a 39mm size that is familiar to Japanese wrists and a simple three-hand dial, and it continues to be loved even now that it has been discontinued.
By the way, Kotoge-san bought this watch on the variety show "Otona no Banana" after being recommended by Shitara-san, a senior comedian from the comedy duo "Bananaman," who is also a watch lover. This is a watch that is perfect for Kotoge-san, who loves classic American cars and motorbikes.
