The presence of this watch is unbeatable we will get further into the details of this watch’s dial and features but for the overall review of the time piece it is stately and enigmatic. Instantly recognizable and accordingly iconic the Audemars Piguet black themes watch is a stunning piece. From the brand that leads product and material innovation in the world of haute horlogerie Audemars Piguet is always exceeding expectations.

On the full stainless steel bracelet this Royal Oak Offshore audemars piguet wears larger than its telling 42 millimeters. The intense design lines and robust manufacturing means this watch sits tall on your wrist and solidly across. The tapered stainless steel bracelet can of course be swapped out with the black rubber strap or other as we will see below. However this version with the full stainless steel bracelet is more of a dress watch. While the rubber strap options are more of an active lifestyle aesthetic.

The size and fit of the Audemars Piguet black themes

A monolithic watch that almost appears to be fashioned from a single unit of stainless steel it absolutely has a strong presence. Although a substantial and almost hefty watch is fits extremely comfortably. As the finish on the bracelet is the same degree as that of dress watches.

Now another feature on this Offshore watch is the finishing. It is still all done by hand. This is one of Audemars Piguet’s claim to fame really. With over 100 years in watch making they still put their watches together by hand with an impeccable attention to detail. They use the exact same types of tools that they always have and create solid luxury sport watches for gentlemen to enjoy. The black themes chronograph also has a prominent sealing gasket. A detail on the past iterations of this watch it is now a visible and robustly visible functional adornment on the watch. It becomes an integral feature of the styling of the watch bringing the black rubber feature back into the mix. The crowns are also protected in the black rubber but really those are the only features outside of the watch that carry the black of the black themes.

Now on the inner part of the watch we have the black dial. It is the iconic waffle style textured dial that we find on the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore watches. It is the key to the black themes nickname as it really carries the aesthetic of the watch. First we have the dramatic contrast of the calibrations on the tachymeter scale on the outer edge of the circumference of the watch. Then we have the have the Arabic numerals in white gold with luminescent features in a strong and block shaped masculine font as well. The small sub registers on the three sub dials of the watch provide more functional views on the dial.

While the sub registers on this watch give the dial some added texture and readability they fit seamlessly into the dial’s aesthetic. There is not really any contrast between them like for example say a white sub dial would have. This allows for the black themes to permeate the grander part of this watch. It also makes the watch look bigger. It is more imposing and present with its sleek all black look.

As well as the mega tappisserie base of the dial. Also known as the waffle texture it is the signature of the Royal Oak Offshore. It is bigger, bolder and blockier than other traditional tappisserie dials. It really defines the look and design aesthetic of this watch. A striking time piece it is both versatile in aesthetics as well as in functionality. You can dive up to 100 meters with the AP black themes Offshore watch as well as wear it to formal functions.
