Introduction to Vlad Topalov
Vlad Topalov is a Russian singer, dancer, and actor who built his public profile as a member of the pop duo Smash!!, which dominated Russian pop charts in the early 2000s alongside Sergey Lazarev. The duo released a string of successful singles and albums across Russia and Eastern Europe before Topalov transitioned into a solo career and expanded into acting. Known for his energetic performances and broad entertainment range, he remains a recognizable figure in Russian popular culture.
When it comes to watches, what little we have spotted on Topalov's wrist points toward a preference for integrated-bracelet sports watches with serious mechanical credentials. The centerpiece of the Vlad Topalov watch collection as documented on Watch Paparazzi is an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph in stainless steel, reference 26320ST.OO.1220ST.01. This is the 41mm version of Gerald Genta's original 1972 design, powered by the in-house calibre 2385 — an integrated column-wheel chronograph movement developed in collaboration with Renaud & Papi. Running at 21,600 vph with a 40-hour power reserve, the movement is visible through a sapphire caseback and represents one of the more technically involved references in the Royal Oak lineup.
The choice of the Royal Oak Chronograph over a simpler three-hand variant suggests Topalov is drawn to functional complexity rather than just the recognizable octagonal bezel aesthetic. The stainless steel configuration keeps things relatively understated within a reference that already commands significant attention on its own terms. With only one confirmed sighting in our database so far, there is likely more to uncover — but the AP Royal Oak Chronograph sets a clear baseline for what this collection is built around.

The Royal Oak Chronograph ref. 26320ST houses the in-house calibre 2385 — a column-wheel integrated chronograph movement that took AP years to develop and remains one of the most technically accomplished movements in its category. The 41mm stainless steel case pairs the iconic Gerald Genta-designed octagonal bezel with a black index dial, creating one of the most recognisable silhouettes in luxury watchmaking. Russian pop artist Vlad Topalov, formerly of hit group Smash!! and now a solo performer, was spotted wearing this integrated-bracelet icon.
