Since it was created in 1993, the Royal Oak Offshore collection nicknamed “The Beast” has defied established conventions, offering a sportier and more muscular take on the Royal Oak and its aesthetic codes, while setting the trend of large-sized watches adapted to extreme sports and lifestyles in tune with the era of the 90s.
Constantly pushing the limits of feasibility, the collection has taken ever-more creative dimensions with a wide array of unyielding materials, sizes and colours, while always upholding fine watchmaking tradition.
As a freerunner Sébastien Foucan consistently pushes his own limits to meet new creative and physical challenges. It is by freely moving with the environment that surrounds him that he finds new ways of expressing himself. His personality strongly resonates with the Royal Oak Offshore’s free spirit, as this collection continues to push boundaries and reinvent itself in more creative and technical ways.
This year, Audemars Piguet dares to reinterpret some of the essential attributes of the Royal Oak Offshore in a new diameter of 43 mm.
Stronger than ever with its combination of hard materials, ergonomic build, latest generation flyback chronograph, interchangeable straps and distinctive looks, it boldly re-establishes the collection’s trailblazing identity.
Audemars Piguet introduces new 42 mm Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph models in stainless steel, titanium or 18-carat pink gold, sporting a new dial design enhanced by a “Petite” or “Méga Tapisserie” motif in different hues.
The 42 mm Royal Oak Offshore novelties are powered by the Manufacture’s latest selfwinding integrated flyback chronograph, Calibre 4404, visible through the new sapphire caseback.
The 42 and 43 mm offering sees the addition of the interchangeable strap system, enabling wearers to easily prepare their Royal Oak Offshore timepieces for the next adventure.
