The Swiss watchmaker creates three striking, different-coloured versions of its Royal Oak Offshore chronograph before a last appearance at the Geneva event

Audemars Piguet is set to make a splash at this year’s Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH), starting on Monday in Geneva, Switzerland, with its new Royal Oak Offshore chronographs.

This year will be the last appearance at SIHH for the Swiss luxury watchmaker, which will be leaving the trade fair starting in 2020 – and it’s ending its run with a bang.

The Royal Oak Offshore collection has been audacious in its design and use of materials, since the collection was first born.

The new 44-millimetre (1.73-inch) timepieces feature a ceramic bezel, pushpieces and screw-locked crown, a Mega Tapisserie dial and rubber traps.

On the dial are hours, minutes and small seconds counters at six o’clock, nine o’clock and 12 o’clock, respectively. A date window can be found at three o’clock.
