UK Perfect Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ‘End of Days’
One of the ways that high quality replica Audemars Piguet watches were able to establish the Offshore in the market was by getting it on the wrists of the biggest stars in the world, and in the late ‘90s, that meant Arnold Schwarzenegger. Audemars Piguet made a special edition Offshore for the release of Peter Hyams’ 1999 movie End of Days starring the famous Austrian, and it’s fair to say that the watch may have been better received than the film. It has certainly aged better, if you ask us. The black on black watch featured an integrated fabric strap and a 42mm case with the original petite tapisserie dial. This watch further established just how flexible this platform could be when working with unexpected materials.
This example of the cheap super clone Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ‘End of Days’ watches are on offer from Analog Shift, and boasts the double layered black nylon strap with velcro closure in excellent condition. This also allows for infinite adjustment to get the perfect fit. Just 500 examples of this watch were made, and while the movie may have been forgettable, this watch left an indelible mark on the history of the Offshore.
UK Best Replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Rubens Barrichello II
As we’ve established, Swiss copy Audemars Piguet watches were not afraid to lean into celebrity collaborations with the Offshore. One such relationship was with Brazilian F1 driver, Rubens Barrichello during the early ‘00s, when he served as teammate to Michael Schumacher at Ferrari. Barrichello had a long, successful racing career, though the bulk of his F1 wins would come during his time at Ferrari from 2000 to 2005. This Royal Oak Offshore comes within the period, and represents a push further toward the extreme ends of the design concept. The larger 44mm case is rendered in titanium, and the bezel, pushers, and dial all feature recesses and cutaways to save weight and reveal the inner workings of the watch. The green, blue, and yellow hands in the subdials are a nod to the Brazilian flag.
This example comes to us from Wind Vintage, and represents an untouched example of the reference. The 1:1 wholesale fake watches are listed as a full kit, and appears to be in unpolished condition, showing only light signs of wear. There’s no getting around that this is an extreme version of an already extreme watch, so this is not for the faint of heart. This watch does make a statement and marks an important part of Audemars Piguet history as the brand further developed the idea of the Offshore.
