  • When I think of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore, my mind immediately thinks of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the larger-than-life action hero who dominated the world of bodybuilding in the late '70s, the box office in the '80s and '90s, and even politics in the '00s. They're both big, bold, and brash. Arnie wore one in End of Days and even had a limited edition made for his third Terminator movie. But more important than that, he even wears them off-camera.

    the message I received from the brief hip-hop overview in the video (by the way, pharrell is a pop artist, "Happyyyyyyyyyy" ain't hip-hop, folks) is that
    "rappers" are not trendsetters, they simply follow what's popular.

    I like these watches. The stainless steel version is the Audemars Piguet entry level watch at £16.9K circa 2019 in Watches of Switzerland here in Manchester, UK who are an Authorized Dealer. Of this model came out on 2019 it omits all the upgrades and new tool free straps that was introduced across the Offshore in 2022, the 50th Anniversaries of the Royal Oak. As Malaika from Hodinkee said, who hosted the AP podcast in March or April this year: 1993 - 2023 is 30 years and they introduced about 4 new models. She interviewed the outgoing CEO and the heritage director. She never responds to comments on her socials so I unfollowed her.

    I'm a fan of Brandon, but i disagree with this review. When a watch is too thick, has excessive lug to lug, and over priced... It shouldn't get a pass. If this was another brand, i guarantee it would have been a much harsher video. At the end of the day, AP is embarrassing considering their history/brand heritage.. between movement issues, silly recent releases, and lack of availability with the few desirable models, they don't belong in the trinity.
