Audemars Piguet Royal 26420CE.OO.A005VE.01 Oak Offshore Chronograph Black Dial

The Audemars Piguet Royal 26420CE.OO.A005VE.01 represents the modern evolution of the Royal Oak Offshore line bigger, tougher, and more refined than ever. This model is crafted entirely from black ceramic, a material chosen not just for its stealthy appearance, but for its durability and resistance to wear.

With a 43mm case, the watch makes a confident statement on the wrist without feeling overbearing. The iconic octagonal bezel, secured by visible screws, stays true to the Royal Oak design language while reinforcing the Offshore’s bold personality.

Black Ceramic Case and Dial Design

The black ceramic case is lightweight yet incredibly tough, making it ideal for daily wear. Unlike coated metals, ceramic maintains its deep black finish over time and resists scratches exceptionally well.

The black dial is clean, technical, and highly legible. Large applied hour markers and bold hands are filled with luminous material, ensuring visibility in all lighting conditions. The chronograph sub-dials are well-proportioned, giving the dial a balanced and purposeful layout, while the date window adds practical everyday functionality.

In-House Calibre 4401 Movement

At the heart of the Audemars Piguet Royal 26420CE.OO.A005VE.01 is the in-house Calibre 4401 automatic movement. This modern flyback chronograph features a column wheel mechanism for smooth operation and enhanced reliability.

The movement delivers an impressive 70-hour power reserve and is visible through the sapphire caseback, showcasing Audemars Piguet’s meticulous finishing and technical expertise.

Strap, Wearability, and Performance

The watch is paired with a black textured rubber strap that complements the ceramic case perfectly. It sits securely on the wrist and offers excellent comfort, even during extended wear. With 100 meters of water resistance, this Offshore chronograph is built to handle both urban life and active environments with ease.
