Description
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph in 37mm represents Audemars Piguet’s most considered expression of the Offshore concept for a broader collector audience — retaining the architectural boldness that defined Emmanuel Gueit’s 1993 original while arriving at proportions that wear with genuine versatility. Reference 26231ST, with its factory diamond-set bezel and blue dial, occupies the precise intersection of sport chronograph and gem-set complication where the Offshore family is most distinctive. Stainless steel with diamond bezels at this reference number are produced in meaningfully limited volumes relative to demand, and the blue dial configuration draws consistent collector attention as one of the more tonally resolved executions within the 37mm Offshore lineup.
The 37mm stainless steel case carries the signature octagonal bezel set with a continuous row of brilliant-cut diamonds in place of the standard eight hexagonal screws. The blue “Grande Tapisserie” dial presents three chronograph subdials — twelve-hour register at nine, thirty-minute counter at twelve, and running seconds at six — with a date aperture at four-thirty and luminous baton indexes throughout. A navy blue rubber strap with stainless steel deployant clasp completes the configuration. Caliber 3126/3840 powers the movement.
