Geneva Watch Days 2021 - The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshores

It is always super exciting when watch brands have the opportunity to showcase what they have been working on for the last year. It gets you excited about new releases and often gives you perspective on the direction of specific brands.

Geneva Watch Days has begun and participating brands are able to showcase the watches they have released this year, but also are able to show new pieces to add to their 2021 journey. The event is being held from August 30th to September 3rd, and boy are there some incredible pieces that were released. As always, Life on the Wrist will be covering the releases from some of the brands, and why not kick it off with Audemars Piguet.

AP released a whole new line up of Royal Oak Offshores this year. They had originally released five new 43mm versions of the Offshores back in March, but are now are releasing a group of five 42mm Offshores for all of us watch enthusiasts to enjoy.
