The Audemars Piguet Offshore Volcano gathers all the qualities for someone looking for an Offshore. Introduced 15 years later, it respects all distinctive lines of the model originally launched in 1993. While the first colourful version made in 1996 were created to add some fun to the design, this time the addition of bright colour was decided to elevate the character and personality of the robust watch to new heights.
The Volcano is the perfect iteration, with its orange hands, Arabic numerals and outer track. It creates a captivating contrast with the black mega tapisserie dial. This effect is prolongated through the black hornback alligator strap with orange stitching. Between them, the robust 42mm diameter stainless steel case with a large bezel complete the impeccable look of the piece.
This example is an attractive example of the Volcano being an early production and retaining impressive proportions.
