Warm, roasted, and refreshingly rebellious, the “Havana” is the Royal Oak Offshore that breaks the rotation. Owners of the black and the blue chase this one for character over convention. Few icons wear their confidence in cigar brown.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Carved with a deep “Méga Tapisserie” weave, the cigar-brown dial shifts from chocolate to caramel with flashes of Caribbean blue. Framed by an octagonal bezel and eight hexagonal screws, the stainless steel case plays brushed tops against mirror-polished bevels. Revealed through a sapphire caseback, the self-winding movement sits beneath a 22-carat gold rotor engraved with the Audemars and Piguet family crests.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and chronograph. Set into the right side of the case, the black ceramic crown pulls to its first position to quick-set the date at three o’clock and to its second position to set the time, while the upper ceramic push-piece starts and stops the chronograph and the lower one resets it to zero.

Comes as a full set, double-boxed with the International Warranty Card and boutique service card.

Growing scarce in this configuration, the “Havana” rewards the buyer who would rather stand apart than blend in. For the collector building a Royal Oak Offshore run, or the newcomer who wants an icon with a pulse, an inquiry is warmly invited.
