Catalogue Essay
Following the success of the Royal Oak, Audemars Piguet introduced the first Royal Oak Offshore chronograph in 1993. The model was introduced firstly in stainless steel with rubber crown and chronographic pushers. Many variations of the case material and dial were introduced after its launch in 1993.

The present example is an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore chronograph in stainless steel and fitted with an attractive “Panda” dial with red accents. The present watch still features rubber crown and chronographic pushers before the transition to ceramic crown and pushers in 2015. Presented in excellent overall condition and complete with the full set of accessories. This present example is a fantastic opportunity of Royal Oak collectors to acquire an attractive variant of the famed model.

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.
