First appearing on the dial of the first Royal Oak watch (Ref. 5402) in 1972, the distinctive color Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50 has inspired countless Audemars Piguet creations. Translating the "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" hue into ceramic required years of painstaking research and development to ensure a harmonious, uniform color throughout the watch, perfectly recreating this legendary hue. Each component undergoes a multi-step process, from machining and sintering to finishing, meticulously crafted. The final steps are meticulously executed by Audemars Piguet's artisans, imbuing even the hardest and most fragile ceramic with a finish comparable to that of precious metals. The alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces of the ceramic enhance the depth of its color and create a myriad of light and shadow effects, highlighting the architectural beauty of the multifaceted construction of the Royal Oak and Royal Oak Offshore cases. This unique material combines high-tech precision processing with traditional hand-finishing techniques, integrating rich modern watchmaking techniques.
The new 41mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Skeleton watch is crafted entirely from "Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50" ceramic. This pure, monochromatic aesthetic accentuates the rhodium-toned skeletonized movement, nestled flush with the dial beneath the sapphire crystal. Rose gold hands and hour markers create a striking visual contrast. The watch is powered by the automatic Calibre 3132, featuring Audemars Piguet's patented double balance mechanism, patented in 2016. Two balance wheels and hairsprings are fixed to the same axis, oscillating at the same frequency, ensuring greater precision and stability. The double balance mechanism can be viewed from both sides of the watch, revealing the previously hidden inner workings. The skeletonized bridges reveal some components of the gear train. This new watch blends cutting-edge technologies like Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining with traditional handcrafts like polished V-shaped chamfers, vividly embodying Audemars Piguet's spirit of continuous advancement in watchmaking.

The new 42mm Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Automatic Chronograph showcases a sportier, monochromatic aesthetic. Ceramic components, the inner bezel, and the "Méga Tapisserie" dial and chronograph subdials are all in "Night Blue." This deep, overarching tone contrasts subtly with the eight hexagonal stainless steel screws that pierce the bezel, as well as the titanium crown plaque and caseback. 18K white gold luminescent hands and hour markers enhance readability, echoing the white gold "AP" logo, which stands out against the dial's chequered pattern. The chronograph function displays, tachymeter scale, and date display are all in white, standing out against the blue background. The chronograph subdials maintain the collection's signature vertical symmetry, with hour and minute counters and small seconds located at 12, 9, and 6 o'clock, respectively. The new watch also debuts a new ceramic bracelet, featuring pins connecting the links and securing them directly within the bracelet, creating an elegant, sleek aesthetic. The watch is equipped with an integrated, automatic chronograph movement, Calibre 4404, featuring a column wheel mechanism and a flyback chronograph function, allowing for instant restart without having to stop or reset the chronograph. The sapphire crystal caseback reveals the movement's exquisite finishing and the collection's exclusive rose gold oscillating weight.
