Catalogue Essay
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore “Survivor” Limited Edition is a bold and tactical reinterpretation of the iconic Royal Oak design, released in 2008 in a limited run of 1,000 pieces. Crafted from lightweight titanium, the watch features aggressive, military-inspired aesthetics such as grenade-pin-like chronograph pushers, a heat-sink-style bezel, and a muzzle-brake-shaped crown. Its black waffle dial and scope-like subdials reinforce its rugged character, while the Caliber 3126/3840 movement, enhanced by a Dubois-Depraz chronograph module, delivers robust mechanical performance. Designed for collectors who appreciate tactical gear and avant-garde horology, the Survivor stands out as a daring and unconventional piece in Audemars Piguet’s lineup.
With further enhanced aesthetics and oversized pusher guards, the watch is hard to miss and incredibly eye catching. Moreover, the watch is completely blacked out and looks like a timepiece a special ops officer would wear. Numbered 215, the present timepiece is offered in overall excellent condition.
