This is the 2024 chronograph, 42mm, executed entirely in black ceramic — case, bezel and bracelet — with the brushed steel of the case flanks and bezel surround left to catch the light against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCeramic is the material that suits this watch. The Offshore was designed to be worn hard, and a case that will not scratch the way steel scratches is the honest answer to that brief. It is also considerably more difficult to make: every surface has to be ground and polished rather than machined, and the alternation of brushed and polished zones that defines a Royal Oak has to survive that process intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dial is Méga Tapisserie in black, carrying a tri-compax chronograph layout, a date at 4:30 and a tachymeter scale on the inner bezel ring. Applied markers and hands are filled with a warm cream luminous compound. The sapphire caseback shows the gold rotor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDriving it is calibre 4404, Audemars Piguet's in-house integrated flyback chronograph — integrated meaning the chronograph is built into the movement's architecture rather than added as a module on top, which is both harder to do and the reason the pushers feel the way they do. Seventy hours of power reserve, water-resistant to 100 metres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComplete with box and papers, unworn. Every watch we sell is authenticated by an independent watchmaker before it changes hands — never by us.
