Founded by Jules Audemars and Edward Piguet in 1875, Audemars Piguet took to the challenge of creating timepieces that combine elegance with mechanical ingenuity. With the launch of Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore, the brand proved it did not lose sight of that mission. Considered its most popular model, it is no surprise that the Royal Oak Offshore came out with special models that are extremely coveted among collectors worldwide.

Among the luxury Swiss watchmaking triumvirate that also includes Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, Audemars Piguet undoubtedly pushes the boundaries of design and innovation furthest.

It’s not unfair to say that Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore is one of the most iconic watches ever made. Designed in 1972 by Gerald Genta, the Royal Oak completely changed the way that we look at a steel sports watch. For the first time, stainless steel was treated as a precious metal - receiving complex finishing techniques of brushing, polishing, and beveling - all by hand. The idea that its eight hexagonal bezel screws would be finely finished and left exposed for the wearer to see was a revolutionary thought. It’s no reason that the model became the calling card for the family owned Audemars Piguet - not to mention one of the most sought after watches in the world.
