A replica of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore series 42 mm self-winding chronograph is now launched. This watch is equipped with a “Méga Tapisserie” oversized checkered dial and is equipped with the latest generation Caliber 4404 self-made movement. This series offers two styles: stainless steel case with light blue dial (model: 26238ST.OO.A340CA.01) and titanium case with military green dial (model: 26238TI.OO.A056CA.01).
This watch is 15.2 mm thick, and its stainless steel or titanium case is alternately polished and brushed to create a wonderful contrasting effect. The case is equipped with an anti-glare sapphire crystal mirror, black rubber buttons, a screw-in crown and shoulder guards. It adopts a see-through bottom design and is 100 meters waterproof.
The light blue or military green dial is engraved with the iconic “Méga Tapisserie” oversized pattern and decorated with fluorescent Arabic numerals and white gold Royal Oak hands, ensuring excellent readability even in dark environments. There are small seconds counter, 30-minute counter and 12-hour counter at 6, 9 and 12 o’clock respectively.
Compared with the original work in 1993, the new watch has adjusted the dial layout, and the positions of the small seconds dial and the 12-hour chronograph dial have been interchanged. There is a magnifying glass above the 3 o’clock position for easy reading of date information.
The light blue dial is paired with a black sub-dial, and the military green dial is paired with a white sub-dial. The contrast is sharp and clear and easy to read. In addition, the outer edge of the dial is marked with a tachymeter scale common in chronographs.
Through the sapphire crystal see-through case back, you can admire the built-in Caliber 4404 flyback chronograph movement. The movement is assembled from 433 parts, has a diameter of 32 mm, contains 40 rubies, has a vibration frequency of 28,800 times per hour (4 Hz), is equipped with a column wheel and a vertical clutch device, and has a power reserve of up to 70 hours. Hand-finished with Côtes de Genève, satin-brushed and polished chamfers. Both watches are equipped with a 22K rose gold oscillating weight, which not only adds a sense of luxury, but also improves winding efficiency.
In addition, these two replica watches come with a textile textured rubber strap that matches the color of the dial, equipped with an AP pin buckle, and an additional black calfskin strap, which is worthy of your taste.
