Catalogue Essay
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore, was the firm’s answer to the every changing taste of the modern collector of fine timepieces. Introduced in 1993, the Offshore features a much larger and thicker case dimension and was first released as a chronograph wristwatch with date, navy blue dial and an integrated bracelet, with a pumped up case dimension measuring 42mm in diameter.

The present model is a Royal Oak Offshore encased in platinum and ceramic and represents a modern iteration of the original Royal Oak Offshore with upgraded oversized crown guards starring rectangular shaped ceramic pushers. The present example is offered in like-new overall condition and comes directly from the original owner, complete with the warranty card, extract from the archives and presentation box.

Audemars Piguet

Swiss | 1881
A specialist in the manufacture of complications since it was established in 1881, Audemars Piguet never ceases to impress with a rich history of creating bold, even audacious, timepieces underpinned by traditional watchmaking at its finest. This Le Brassus-based Swiss manufacturer is one of only two major manufacturers still owned by the founding family. Since its earliest days, AP is considered a leader in the field of minute repeaters and grande complication pocket and wristwatches. The brand is devoted to preserving the history of watchmaking in the Vallée de Joux, showcased at their superb museum in Le Brassus.
Today, the brand is best known for its Royal Oak models, a revolutionary luxury sports watch launched in 1972. Other key models include early minute repeating wristwatches, vintage chronograph wristwatches, such as the oversized reference 5020, perpetual calendar watches and the Royal Oak Offshore, first introduced in 1993.
