Description
The Beast… This is the name watch enthusiasts gave to the Royal Oak Offshore when it was presented in 1993.
Everything that made the original Royal Oak Offshore an emblematic model has been kept alive: the oversized, multi-step case; the classic Royal Oak elements; the combination of materials; the colours; the layout of the dial, and its textures… But first impressions can be deceptive, as this new edition for 2021 has its fair share of new features.
The case is basically the same as the old ROO. With its diameter of 42mm and its height of 15.2mm, it retains approximately the same proportions. The overall design is also fairly close to the original model, with the highly raised octagonal bezel with its eight white gold screws, the exposed blue rubber gasket between the case and bezel, the blue rubber-clad pushers and screw-locked crown protected by pointy guards and the classic combination of vertically brushed surfaces enlightened by large, polished bevels on the sides of the bezel and the case. The case also retains the 100m water resistance of the original.
Today’s example is from 2021, in excellent condition complete with box and papers.
