One of the most complicated in the family is the Royal Oak Offshore Double Barrel Tourbillon. Initially introduced in 2010, the model featured a larger case than its regular counterpart measuring 44mm in diameter. Fitted inside the case is the in-house manual calibre 2933 featuring a double barrel tourbillon chronograph complication. With a power reserve of 237 hours, regular timepieces average 48 hours of reserve, the compliment is achieved by the double-barrel mechanism enabling the calibre to reserve energy for a much longer period of time.
Furthermore, the tourbillon escapement featured vertically on the left side of the dial provides an enhanced gravitational compensation to the movement achieving a better precision. The model was available with 4 iterations with each featuring different case materials.
The present example encased in platinum and fitted with a black ceramic bezel launched in 2014 and produced for a short period of time. Presented in excellent overall condition with very minimal signs of use and wear, the present timepiece is also accompanied by the full set of accessories.
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.
