Six years later, it's creator Emmanuel Gueit would depart AP. Nicknamed 'The Beast' due to its massive case proportions measuring 42 mm in diameter -excluding the crown- and 15 mm in thickness, the Royal Oak Offshore presented in 1993 at Baselworld, seemed to be a monster of a watch with little to no foreseen future success. While most people at Audemars Piguet felt that the design wasn't good enough, Stephen Urquhart supported the project and ultimately became the man who would name Gueit's creation 'Royal Oak Offshore'. The result, a massive Royal Oak look-alike designed with adventure-seekers in mind.
As these watches start getting hotter and prices start to increase, let's make sure that everyone selling gets fair money and collectors avoid underpaying or overpaying for this Audemars Piguet grail nicknamed 'The Beast'.īack in 1989 when Stephen Urquhart -the current President of Omega Watches- was Joint Chairman and Delegate of the Board of Directors at Audemars Piguet, he asked a young designer who had just joined AP a year earlier named Emmanuel Gueit, to come up with a celebratory piece for the 20th anniversary of the Royal Oak. 32- and the information we've shared in the past across different watch forums and here, we thought it would be a good idea to finally create the most comprehensive guide to date in order to help buyers and sellers of the reference 25721ST.OO.1000ST.01. As there is not much information out there, other than the 'Unleashing The Beast' article posted by Audemars Piguet -on their museum piece No. Also, recently we've found more activity in places like Timezone, ThePurists and TRF, regarding this iconic watch. with its iconic queen blue dial -more about this particular hue of blue here.
