SIHH 2018 Preview – Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 25th Anniversary Models

Audemars Piguet, which first launched in 1993, will be celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Royal Oak Offshore in 2018. For its pre-SIHH event, 3 new versions of the iconic sports watch are presented.

  1. A re-edition of the original Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph
  2. A brand new Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon Chronograph with a contemporary dial design developed in two versions.

 

 

Various materials, such as stainless steel, titanium, gold and platinum, were adopted to the manufacturing of Royal Oak Offshore.

 

This year, a limited edition of 50 pieces each in either stainless steel or 18kt pink gold is introduced by Audemars Piguet.

 

An entirely redesigned movement is developed exclusively to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Royal Oak Offshore collection. Ceramic, instead of metal and rubber, is used for the crown and pusher.
