AP - Royal Oak Offshore (Navy)

I absolutely love this watch - incredible build quality and finish quality from a great watch maker and it still flies under the radar 99% of the time.

Training course today so wanted something interesting to look at

Fantastic looking watch, not seen that model before

+1, had a quick look on the website and will have to get some luck on the lottery for one of these.

An AP RO is going to be my next purchase, I tried on the very same watch as yours in Selfridges in Manchester a few months ago.

Highly recommended

I drove over to London and between a couple of places managed to see the 4 different styles in one go. Decided the navy was my favourite (though the elephant, safari and black were ALL close seconds ) and went for it that same day from H&Y Jewellery in knightsbridge (they have very good deals on brand new APs).

Thanks for the tip, I'll drop in if I get time next week. Just found the photo I took as an aide-memoire

That's the one! Are you thinking Navy or one of the others? I'd actually prefer to see the black and grey on rubber straps too.

It's the navy I fancy and I note from Chrono24 that H&Y have a new 2015 in stock for about £5k less than I saw it in Selfridges....

Yep, that sounds about right. Go for it!

With regard to straps. I have a few that I purchased from APBANDS. I have red, white and a black rubber for my ROO PANDA.

Cheers.

Good tip, haven't looked at that store before.

Was never a fan of AP before but they've really grew on me in the last 12 months, need to start looking for one I think!


This isn't one I wear a lot and truth be told it looks a bit lost on my wrist but I got a chance to own my first Patek at a ridiculously good price a while back so just went with it.

Loving the AP. Always really liked the blue and orange combo. Offshore name is a bit misleading seeing it only goes to 50m, although you do get lovely case back.
