  • Catalogue Essay

    Introduced in 2002, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ref. 25940OK was the first model to feature a rubber embossed bezel creating a nice contrast against the metal case. Released in stainless steel and 18K pink gold, the Royal Oak Offshore Rubber clad certainly exudes a sporty appeal over other variants of the Offshore. Paired harmoniously with a rubber strap, the crown and chronographic pushers are also rubber embossed creating the perfect synchronization of the modern sports watch.

    Presented in attractive overall condition, the present example Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ref. 25940OK is accompanied by its original presentation box.

  • Artist Biography

    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.
