Quick TakeWe just love black ceramic watches. The brushed black ceramic case in this Royal Oak Offshore Grande Complication really gives the watch a sleeper look versus how the white ceramic version just screams for attention. The Royal Oak Offshore is one of our favorite watch collections and the perpetual calendar our favorite complication, so combining both with the black ceramic is a real win for Audemars Piguet. The inclusion of the minute repeater is just an extremely nice bonus.

DescriptionThe Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Grande Complication Ref. 26582CE.OO.A002CA.01 stands as a remarkable embodiment of the brand's commitment to innovation and excellence in watchmaking. Dubbed as "Black Magic," this timepiece is a striking combination of high-tech allure and traditional craftsmanship. The watch is encased entirely in black ceramic, a material renowned for its durability and scratch resistance, symbolizing the fusion of modern technology with luxury watchmaking. The choice of black ceramic extends to the pushpieces, crown, and pushpiece guards, lending the watch a cohesive and powerful aesthetic. This Grande Complication watch, with a sizeable 44 mm diameter and a thickness of 15.5 mm, commands attention while maintaining the elegance and distinctive design language that Audemars Piguet is known for. Its glareproofed sapphire crystal and caseback offer a glimpse into the complex mechanisms inside, while also ensuring readability and resilience.

At the heart of this timepiece is the selfwinding Calibre 2885 movement, a masterpiece of mechanical ingenuity comprising 648 parts and 52 jewels. This movement equips the watch with an array of sophisticated features: a minute repeater, perpetual calendar, split-seconds chronograph, and week indication. These functions not only demonstrate technical mastery but also offer practical utility to the wearer. The sapphire dial with black counters, white gold applied hour-markers, and Royal Oak hands, set against a black inner bezel, creates a stunning visual contrast, ensuring legibility without compromising on style. Complementing the case is a black rubber strap with a titanium pin buckle, which adds to the watch's sporty yet sophisticated appeal. With a power reserve of 45 hours and water resistance up to 20 meters, the Royal Oak Offshore Grande Complication is a testament to Audemars Piguet's prowess in creating watches that are both technologically advanced and aesthetically compelling.
