Audemars Piguet’s Bold Reimagining: The New Ceramic and Titanium Editions of the Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronographs

Since its inception in 1993, the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore has been the canvas for the watchmaker’s most vibrant, daring, and inventive creations. Retrofitted to be larger, bolder, and more muscular than the original Royal Oak, the Offshore’s audacious design quickly earned it the nickname ‘Beast’. Its 2021 overhaul introduced a more ergonomically friendly 43mm case, as well as the brand’s in-house integrated flyback chronograph calibre 4401. Now, in a continued celebration of this rule-breaking legacy, Audemars Piguet presents two new Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding Chronograph models for 2026, built around high-tech ceramics, titanium and high-contrast colours.

Both of these timepieces are powered by Audemars Piguet’s calibre 4401, a state-of-the-art integrated flyback chronograph that grants smooth chronograph engagement and precise flyback function. This exceptional choice of movement, along with Audemar Piguet’s adventurous approach to materials and striking colour choices, cements these newest offerings as compelling additions to any watch connoisseur’s collection.
