The Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph 26470OR elevates the collection's bold aesthetic with the warmth and prestige of 18-carat rose gold. This commanding 42mm chronograph merges precious metal craftsmanship with sports-watch functionality, creating a timepiece that transitions effortlessly from boardroom to weekend pursuits.
Case & Construction
Crafted entirely in 18-carat rose gold, the 42mm case showcases the iconic octagonal bezel with eight hexagonal screws, alternating brushed and polished surfaces that catch light from every angle. The integrated case architecture flows seamlessly into the bracelet, while screw-locked crown and chronograph pushers ensure water resistance to 100 metres.
Dial & Complications
The "Méga Tapisserie" dial pattern creates depth and texture beneath applied rose gold hour markers and Royal Oak hands with luminescent coating. Three chronograph sub-dials provide essential timing functions: 30-minute counter at 9 o'clock, 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and small seconds at 12 o'clock. Date aperture positioned at 3 o'clock completes the balanced layout.
Movement
Powered by the automatic chronograph calibre with column-wheel mechanism, offering precision timekeeping and approximately 40 hours of power reserve. The sapphire exhibition caseback reveals the beautifully decorated movement with Côtes de Genève, circular graining, and bevelled edges—a testament to haute horlogerie finishing.
Bracelet & Fit
The integrated 18-carat rose gold bracelet features alternating brushed and polished links, creating visual harmony with the case. The AP-folding clasp with double push-security system ensures both comfort and security during wear, while the substantial weight provides a reassuring presence on the wrist.
