Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore “The BEAST” Original

This is the first model of Offshore, now nicknamed The Beast (for obvious reasons!). Just like the Royal Oak, it was shocking upon its release: too big, too thick, too industrial, etc. Well we all know how that turned out. The Offshore became as iconic for AP as the Royal Oak it built on. AP came out to an homage to this one last year which understandable sent people searching for the real thing.

This one is an E serial and is as perfect as I’ve ever seen. It recently came back from AP service, is mint mint and under warranty, and comes complete with its original box and papers. This is one you could wear every day, or stick in the back of the safe and know that you have a stunning version of what already is and is destined to become even more so an important watch
