AP’s Royal Oak Offshore when first released in 1993 set the records as the world’s most expensive chronograph wristwatch. The design of the watch has become a fusion of futuristic and traditionalist elements. However, the sheer proportion and weight of ROO is not for everyone. In 2001, after careful research, AP came out with a specifically developed rubber compound called “nitrile” which AP found is bounding well with metal, thus the release of this rubber-clad Offshore which features a protective rubber clad bezel and a rubber bracelet with a signature AP deployant clasp. This particular model of ROO introduced a new tapestry motif on dial and is available in white and black dials with Arabic numerals. The watch is fitted AP’s 54 jewels Caliber 2326/2840 which has a rotor in 21K gold oscillating weight segment, rhodium-plated with “Cotes de Geneve” and circular graining decorative patterns.
