  • Catalogue Essay

    Released in 2002, Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak Offshore Rubber clad was the first watch featuring a rubber covered bezel and only the second watch to make use of a rubber strap. Produced in both stainless steel and 18k pink gold, the use of rubber in horology was quite revolutionary, but added a modern flare, and making a luxury sports watch even more an accessory for the outdoorsman.

    Presented in excellent original condition, and with a lovely anthracite tapisserie dial, this G series watch comes complete with box and papers.

  • Artist Biography

    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.
