Product Description
A bold evolution of the original Offshore “Beast,” the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Ref. 26238CD pushes the limits of modern watchmaking with full “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” ceramic construction—a deep, historic shade inspired by the night sky of the Vallée de Joux.
Crafted entirely in this advanced blue ceramic, the 42mm case, bezel, and integrated bracelet deliver exceptional scratch resistance while maintaining a lightweight feel on the wrist. The iconic Royal Oak design remains intact—octagonal bezel, exposed screws, and sharp finishing—now elevated through one of the most technically challenging materials in haute horology.
The matching “Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50” Méga Tapisserie dial creates a fully monochromatic aesthetic, complemented by white gold hands and hour markers filled with luminescent material for optimal legibility. The chronograph layout is balanced and functional, featuring three subdials and a date display at 3 o’clock.
At its core is the in-house Caliber 4404, a selfwinding flyback chronograph movement with a column wheel and vertical clutch system. It delivers precise operation, a 70-hour power reserve, and can be admired through the sapphire caseback.
