Recently, Audemars Piguet is actively planning a long-term publicity campaign aimed at assisting people affected by the earthquake in northeastern Japan. The initial idea of the plan was to raise 100 million yen in donations to the Japanese Red Cross.
At this very moment, the brand launched a new watch-Royal Oak Offshore Ginza 7 series chronograph. The diameter is 42 mm and the case is made of high-temperature forged ultra-light carbon fiber. Its iconic octagonal design, combined with the fixing of 8 screws, is full of novelty. Water-resistant effective distance is 100 meters.
This limited edition Audemars Piguet with only 200 watches in the world has a built-in automatic movement, hand-made from sanding to assembly. In addition, a 22-carat gold rotor can be seen through its transparent back cover.
The exquisite movement allows this series of functions to play on the perfectly balanced dial. This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Ginza 7 series forged carbon watch is equipped not only with a central hour meter, but also a small seconds counter at 12 o’clock.
The timekeeping function of this watch can be unified through the 30-minute timer sub-dial at 9 o’clock, the 12-hour timer sub-dial at 6 o’clock and the central seconds hand. In addition, there is a date window at 3 o’clock, and the scale at 7 o’clock is particularly eye-catching with diamonds, which is also unique to the ‘Ginza 7’ series.
The new Audemars Piguet comes with a black alligator strap with a folding buckle at the end.
