Did you know the Royal Oak Offshore 25721ST was the FIRST of its kind? Released in 1993, it sparked controversy with its bold design, outrageous size, and groundbreaking materials. At 42mm in diameter and nearly 400g, this "wrist anchor" defied all norms of its time, where men’s watches averaged just 36mm!
Nicknamed "The Beast," the 25721 was born to rejuvenate the Royal Oak collection and meet the German market’s demand for an "Offshore spirit." With only 10,896 pieces made over 20 years, it’s a legit piece of Audemars Piguet history!
Rare Facts & Fun Details:
✨ The first 100 steel models didn’t even have the "Offshore" engraving due to trademark precautions.
✨ Available in 8 materials—mainly steel (7,000+ pieces), with ultra-rare variants in platinum (10), white gold (21), and blackened steel (just 1!).
✨ Outrageous yet iconic, the 25721 paved the way for the legendary Offshore series we know today!
💸 Want one? In decent condition, steel models can range from $20K-$30K, with $25K being the sweet spot.
Final Take:
⚡ Do you think "The Beast" deserves its iconic status? Let’s hear your thoughts below! ⚡
