  • 圖錄文章

    In the early 1990s, Audemars Piguet tasked its in-house designer Emmanuel Gueit to reinvent the classic Royal Oak model and infuse it with new life and power. For years, Gueit and his team worked on a prototype and subsequently presented the final product, reference 25721ST, in 1993 at Basel. The result was astonishing and something completely different from what the public had ever seen before. It was shortly nicknamed “The Beast” due to what was, at the time, its astonishing 42mm case size. The launch of reference 25721ST marked the beginning of the Offshore lineage. In fact, it arguably established the trend for large-sized watches, which is today is the complete norm.

    The present example of "The Beast" is without a doubt a masterpiece of opulence. Dressed up in gold livery and a statement watch like few others, the yellow gold case and bracelet allow the present piece to truly emanate an aura of utmost exclusivity. Offered in pristine condition, the present piece will not fail to catch the eye of the beholder and surely be the instantaneous conversation sparker both among watch enthusiasts and laymen as well.
