A worthy successor to the legacy of its older Royal Oak brother, the Offshore Chronograph is an experience that is hard to put into words – and that’s a good thing. Much like its predecessor, the model represents an intense yearning for the future, but it nevertheless looks to the past, to the rich history it is part of, with the highest respect.
However, while the original Royal Oak is a somber, high-cultured timepiece, the Offshore has no problem letting its hair down and having a ball. The watch on offer here owes its existence namely to this more free-spirited approach to watchmaking.
This iteration of the Offshore Chronograph incorporates all the essential Royal Oak design staples – which, of course, trace their origin to the visionary Gerald Genta – but it presents them in a more unrestrained manner. The Mega Tappeserie dial, for example – while just as reality-defyingly flawless – comes in an unapologetic light beige, which we personally never expected to see encircled by the iconic octagonal bezel of a Royal Oak. Continuing the unusual color palette, said bezel is fashioned out of dark-green ceramic – so dark, in fact, that it appears black under most types of light. Nevertheless, certain angles will make it pop, revealing the dial-complementary color underneath the brushed finish. The familiar case is also covered in fine hairlines, with numerous beveled edges and polished details separating them, softening the watch’s 4-dimensional presence. The camouflaged integrated strap is merely the cherry on top, but it dispels any doubt as to this piece’s devil-may-care attitude.
At the center of this unusual composition – and proudly showcased by the exhibition caseback – the modular caliber 3126/3840 is ticking confidently away. It consists of 59 jewels/365 parts, operates at a frequency of 3Hz (21.600vph), and offers 50 hours of power reserve when fully wound.
