replica audemars piguet royal oak offshore watches

In the late 1980s, Audemars Piguet designer, Emmanuel Gueit was tasked to design a modern version of the Royal Oak. Rather than just one night, this time the new mission took four years—it’s not easy to revamp a watch icon. While replica audemars piguet royal oak offshore watches Gueit retained many of the details that made the Royal Oak stand out, such as the octagonal bezel, exposed screws, tapisserie dial, and integrated bracelet, he also added new touches to make the Offshore watch his own.

After all, the Royal Oak Offshore’s 42mm case size may not be a big deal in today’s market but in the 1990s, it was unheard of and somewhat offensive. Plus, as a chronograph, it wears even bigger thanks to the protruding chronograph pushers flanking the winding crown. It has even been reported that Genta himself accused Audemars Piguet of destroying his masterpiece. Picking up the nickname “The Beast,” the Royal Oak Offshore included other bold details such as a visible black gasket beneath the bezel, black silicon caps replica audemars piguet watches uk on the pushers and crown, and a rehashed integrated bracelet with rounder links. Thankfully, Audemars Piguet held their ground—remember, the company’s rebellious motto is, “To break the rules, you must first master them,”—and today hoards of customers are happy to wear AP’s beast. Since its introduction 25 years ago, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore collection has welcomed a slew of different versions to its lineup. Along with the customary material options, ranging from steel to gold to ceramic, there’s also an impressive amount of colorful ROO models to choose from in shades like yellow, orange, and lime green.
