Audemars Piguet Alinghi Team Royal Oak Offshore in Platinum To celebrate the anniversary of Alinghi’s victory, Audemars Piguet invited over fifty representatives of the international press to Valencia to unveil its latest creation: the Royal Oak Offshore Alinghi Team Chronograph. Developed with excellent shock resistance and water resistant to 100 meters, the Royal Oak Offshore Alinghi Team Chronograph embodies the alliance between the worlds of competitive sailing and luxury watchmaking, not only in the choice of materials but also in its functions and design. Designed with America’s Cup regattas in mind, the timepiece has a flyback chronograph function as well as a 10-minute countdown function, both in keeping with the 11-minute race start rule. The dial reflects the nautical world, with counter hands shaped like the prow of a ship, the Alinghi logo at 3 o’clock and bright red accents to enhance the sporting spirit of this exceptional timepiece. These details were met with great enthusiasm by the guests at the Audemars Piguet press conference. Most would think the Alinghi Team is just a Chronograph but in fact the Alinghi team is a Regatta Countdown timer with FLYBACK function. One click of top button starts the “chrono/countdown timer” the small window at 3:00 is a 10 minute countdown used for the start of the race until they reach the starting line.. upon arrival to the starting line you then press the bottom button which instantly resets the chrono to 0 and starts with one push.. this is now a chronograph to time the race.. pressing top button pauses the chronograph to readoff the elapsed time.. one can either continue timing same event with top button or press bottom button to reset once stopped.. pressing bottom button while running will “flyback” the movement again. (all subdial’s flip to 0 and instantly start with only one push of button). watch is equipped with the JLC movement with flyback module labeled the Cal 3239.
