Watch Info
Manufacturer: Audemars Piguet
Model: Royal Oak Offshore "Rubberclad"
Condition: Great (Pre-Owned)
Reference: 25940SK.OO.D002CA.02.A
Year: Circa 2007
Box: No
Papers: Yes (Extract from the Archives)
Accessories: Watch and Extract Only. Includes the official Audemars Piguet Extract from the Archives, confirming the watch’s authenticity, serial number, and original sale date.
Notes: The 25940SK is a foundational reference in the Offshore’s history—the first luxury timepiece to feature a bezel coated in vulcanized rubber. This "Rubberclad" iteration with the white Méga Tapisserie dial offers a sharp, high-contrast aesthetic that is more versatile than the stealthy black-dial versions. For collectors, the 25940SK is prized for its "old school" Offshore proportions and the use of the Calibre 2326/2840, which provides a satisfying mechanical "click" when engaging the chronograph.
Condition Assessment
Overall Condition: Pre-Owned - Great. This piece has been enjoyed but well-maintained. The stainless steel case retains its aggressive, sharp-angled profile and original brushed finish.
Dial, Hands, & Crystal: The crisp white Méga Tapisserie dial is pristine. The bold Arabic numerals and white gold Royal Oak hands are flawless. The sapphire crystal is clear of scratches, providing a perfect view of the high-contrast layout.
Case & Bezel: The 42mm stainless steel case is in great shape. Note: The rubber-clad bezel—the most sensitive part of this reference—is in great condition, but as with all rubber-clad models, it may show light signs of smoothing or superficial marks on the edges. The case flanks show minor surface hairlines, which could be easily addressed with a light professional polish to return the watch to a showroom luster.
Strap & Clasp: Fitted on a black Audemars Piguet rubber strap that is supple and secure. The stainless steel AP folding deployant clasp functions perfectly and shows only light surface swirling.

Why the 25940SK White Dial is a Value King
The Rubberclad is the "gateway" to the world of high-end Offshores. While the modern ceramic models (ref. 26420) are technically advanced, many enthusiasts prefer the 25940SK for its tactile rubber bezel and its place in the timeline of early 2000s sports luxury.
In the April 2026 market, the 25940SK is increasingly recognized as a "neo-vintage" classic. Having an Extract from the Archives is crucial for this reference, as it serves as official verification from Le Brassus, providing peace of mind in a market where box and papers are often lost over decades of ownership. For the buyer looking for a rugged, iconic AP that doesn't feel like a "safe queen," the white dial Rubberclad is an unbeatable combination of pedigree and performance.
