One of the greatest joys for watch enthusiasts is observing the evolution and reissues of iconic models. A striking example is  latest execution of the Royal Oak Offshore Selfwinding 43 mm Replica . Premiered in 1993 as an offspring to the famous Royal Oak and nicknamed ‘The Beast’ due to its size and weight, the latest member of this luxury sports watch family sets sail with some awesome aesthetic details, combining a dark blue with the cool look and feel of stainless steel.

Water-resistant to 100 meters, the 43mm stainless steel case is fitted with a blue rubber-coated bezel and attached to a matching rubber strap. This two-tone aesthetic continues onto the smoked blue Méga Tapisserie dial. The watch face is furnished with rhodium-toned gold trapezoidal-shaped hour-markers and Royal Oak hands, which have been enhanced with a luminescent coating for optimum visibility, a blue inner bezel, and an AP monogram in polished rhodium-toned gold at 12 o’clock. There is also a date window at 3 o’clock. Other details to note are redesigned crown guards and satin-finished studs that operate the interchangeable strap system.
