Since 1993, the Royal Oak Offshore has been challenging established conventions, giving the iconic Royal Oak and its aesthetic an unprecedented sportiness, masculinity and power. The first Royal Oak Offshore watch, launched in 1993, was a pioneering style for large watches with a diameter of 42 mm. Its generous dimensions set new standards for future trends. Steel was the metal of choice, but the Royal Oak Offshore also featured a variety of innovative materials.
