The new Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore is now redesigned to 43 mm

Audemars Piguet launched the redesigned Royal Oak Offshore in 2021, with a 43 mm case for the first time. The watchmaker has always offered Royal Oak offshore watches with a 44 mm case. At that time, the young designer Emmanuel Gueit designed the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak offshore watch. However, it debuted with a 42mm case. Although it was a huge size at the time, the watch gained the nickname “The Beast”.

However, the Associated Press first equipped the Royal Oak Offshore with a chronograph and “Therban” rubber details. Nevertheless, the new AP Royal Oak Offshore in 2021 will make its debut with a new case diameter of 43 mm. It is also equipped with the brand’s new integrated Calibre 4401 flyback chronograph. Let us go deeper into the details.

Case and bezel
The new AP Royal Oak Offshore retains the same classic shape as its old model. In addition, this watch is also very similar to the original Gueit design. The Associated Press’s major upgrades to the new Royal Oak offshore model include:

In addition, in addition to the all-titanium watch models, the new Royal Oak Offshore watch uses a ceramic bezel to provide a two-tone contrast.

In addition, AP moved the date window between the 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock positions on the inner bezel.

In addition, AP provides a simpler single-line application of the gold “AP” logo for the dial. His hands appear more rugged and rugged.
