Audemars PiguetRoyal Oak OffshoreModel No: 26040ST.OO.D002CA.01

Now, let’s get to the other features that make this Royal Oak Offshore a true regatta watch. The inner rotating bezel, controlled by the screw-down crown at 10, works both as a compass and a conventional dive bezel with direction markers and a 60-minute scale, respectively. Further, perhaps the most interesting detail on the dial is the 10-minute scale placed between the inner bezel and the smooth hour track. It’s a Regatta countdown timer that highlights the 10-minute countdown to begin the race. Impressive attention to detail — this scale goes red in the final one minute of the countdown around noon on the dial to facilitate easy reading for the racer.

Not so common at the time in Royal Oak Offshores, this Alinghi Polaris functions on a flyback chronograph mechanism with a vertical clutch. It is powered by the automatic calibre 896 with a 38-hour power reserve, stowed safely inside the solid caseback, which also carries beautiful nautical engravings.
