Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph
This is a luxury Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore chronograph, likely a 44mm model. The watch features a striking black ceramic or PVD-coated stainless steel case with the iconic octagonal bezel secured by eight visible hexagonal screws. The dial displays the signature 'Mega Tapisserie' pattern in a dark navy or black hue, complemented by rose gold-tone hour markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating. Functionality includes three sub-dials for chronograph tracking and a round date window at the 3 o'clock position. The piece is equipped with a black rubber strap integrated into the case via signature lugs. The crown and chronograph pushers are protected by substantial guards, characteristic of the 'Offshore' line's rugged aesthetic. The condition appears to be excellent with sharp brushed and polished edges still visible on the bezel, and no significant scratches or dings on the sapphire crystal or case body. As a modern interpretation of the 1972 Gérald Genta classic, this timepiece represents high-end Swiss horology, balancing industrial design with meticulous hand-finishing and complex mechanical movement.
