Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Joins the Bucherer Blue Collection
The first special edition for the 42mm model since 2014.

Swiss luxury retailer Bucherer has once again expanded on its famed Bucherer Blue collection, partnering with Audemars Piguet for a second time to add a special edition Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph to its roster of offerings.
Creating the first special edition for the 42mm Royal Oak Offshore since its original launch in 2014, the Lucerne-based retailer has tapped on the two-tone aesthetic, pairing a stainless steel case with an 18k pink gold bezel and end links, while the chronograph pushers and crown are dressed in black. The centerpiece of the watch is no doubt the signature deep blue “Méga Tapisserie” dial, adorned with three subdials at 6, 9, and 12 o’clock as well as a date window by 3 o’clock. Powering these complications is an in-house fully automatic chronograph 3126/3840 caliber, carrying with it a 50-hour power reserve. To complete the package, the timepiece comes with a selection of three straps: black rubber, blue rubber, and a black alligator strap.
Now available at Bucherer, the special edition Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph retails for CHF 34,900, or roughly $38,200 USD. Head over to the retailer’s website to learn more.
