Catalogue Essay
Since the release of the firm’s very first Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph model in 1993, Audemars Piguet has introduced a diverse range of variations with differing materials, sizes and complications. Initially released to cater towards the contemporary demand of collectors, the larger case dimension was a breakthrough and was immediately in trend. While the initial model featured a case size measuring 42mm in diameter, the firm released smaller iterations measuring 37mm in diameter for the discerned lady collector.

The present Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph encased in a forged carbon case fitted with a diamond-set bezel is the firm’s testament to their technical excellence in incorporating new materials on a wristwatch executed with traditional craftsmanship. With a comfortably light and sturdy case, the all black appeal contrasted with it diamond-set bezel and red accents certainly exudes a sporty vibe perfect to wear at the gym.

Presented in attractive overall condition and value, the present lot is further accompanied by its original warranty and presentation box.

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.
