Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Is the Latest Addition to Bucherer's Blue Collection

Bucherer, one of Switzerland's top sources for exquisite timepieces since 1888, is introducing Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph to its Blue Collection Only available in Europe exclusively through Bucherer boutiques, the signature chronograph is already one of Audemars Piguet's most recognized watches as is the case with every member of the Blue Collection, its palette has taken on some aqua inspiration When the Royal Oak originally launched in 1972, it was crafted with a blue Tapisserie dial which communicated its modern, sporty feel and this is a welcome return to form.

While there are other Royal Oak's with the blue waffle-designed dial, this one is described as a "Mega Tapisserie" for its oversize version of the pattern and it is the only current chronograph iteration that also comes with blue subdial counters Measuring 42 mm across and 14.54 mm thick, its case is forged from stainless steel with a contrasting 18-karat pink gold bezel-a combination also specifically developed specifically for the Blue Collection If you like the watch but aren't wild about the strap, it comes with three different options to suit a variety of styles: blue or black rubber and black alligator.

The special-edition Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore with two-tone case sells for approximately $38,217. . Source
