Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore

The Royal Oak Offshore is Audemars Piguet’s larger, sportier take on Gérald Genta’s 1972 Royal Oak. Designed by Emmanuel Gueit and launched in 1993, it kept the octagonal bezel with its eight exposed screws and added a thicker case and the bold Méga Tapisserie dial. Today the line runs from the 42 mm Offshore Diver to 42 mm and 44 mm chronographs in steel, titanium, ceramic and gold. References that have passed through our desk include the 26470ST and 26470IO chronographs, the 15720ST Diver, the 26400SO “Panda” in ceramic and steel, the 26401RO in pink gold and the 26170ST “Volcano”. Every Offshore is authenticated in-house at our Jersey City office — movement, case engraving and dial checked against the reference — and is in stock or sourced on request. Selling an Offshore?
