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 this boldly.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Patterned with a deep “Méga Tapisserie” texture, 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. A sapphire caseback reveals the self-winding movement, topped by a 22K gold rotor engraved with the Audemars and Piguet family crests.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, chronograph. Unscrew the black ceramic crown on the right side of the case, then pull it to the first position to quick-set the date at three o’clock, or to the second position to set the time. The upper push-piece starts and stops the chronograph, while the lower one resets it to zero. A full wind delivers a 50-hour power reserve, and the case is water resistant to 100 meters.

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

Made for the collector who would rather stand apart than blend in, the “Havana” is an icon with a pulse. For anyone building a Royal Oak Offshore run, or starting one with a bang, this is the one you will not want to leave in the box.
