Horology enthusiasts have taken notice of Offset’s refined taste in timepieces, especially with his recent acquisition of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Openworked (Ref. 15407ST.OO.1220ST.02).
Seen wearing this stunning watch on his Instagram, the hip-hop artist and style icon has made a statement about his growing appreciation for horological artistry.
This specific model, originally retailing for $76,400, has become a highly sought-after piece in the secondary market.
With prices now soaring between $179,000 to over $200,000, the Royal Oak is quickly securing its place as a rare and prestigious collectible.
The stainless steel case, paired with a rose gold-toned dial, showcases Audemars Piguet’s legendary craftsmanship, with its openworked dial and double balance wheel mechanism capturing the attention of watch aficionados around the world.
Offset, known for his flashy diamond chains and “buss down” watches in his early days with Migos, has clearly shifted his focus to more sophisticated, understated pieces that emphasize horological artistry. The Royal Oak’s intricate openwork design reflects the artist’s growing taste for watches that balance technical innovation with refined elegance, showcasing a sophisticated evolution in his collection.
In an Instagram video, Offset shared his excitement over the watch:
“These pieces speak loud for themselves, so I go light on the jewelry. I might just wear it to watch. No chain, no bracelet, just cool, watch. Keep it pushing. I’m gonna go with this Audemars. I just got this joint right here. Only me and Michael Jordan and Serena Reyes got this right now. This is the stainless skeleton with the face rose gold.”
Offset’s choice to wear the Royal Oak without heavy accessories signals a new era in his style, one where the watch itself takes center stage.
As he continues to embrace watches of unparalleled craftsmanship and design, his Royal Oak serves as a clear testament to his growing appreciation for the art of horology.
