Royal Oak Offshore Chrono 44mm Michael Schumacher - Limited Edition of 1000
Model #26568IM.OO.A004CA.01 Box:Yes Paper:No Year:2013
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Ref. 26568IM.OO.A004CA.01 commemorates legendary Formula 1 champion Michael Schumacher through an exceptional limited edition of 1000 pieces worldwide. Our team has tracked the market performance of racing-themed limited editions extensively, noting that the Schumacher collaborations have consistently outperformed expectations, likely due to the thoughtful design language that bridges automotive inspiration with wearability better than most racing-themed watches. This particular example, number 298 of 1000, combines sporting heritage with mechanical excellence.
Technical specifications highlight the racing pedigree of this 44mm chronograph: The self-winding movement features an integrated chronograph mechanism with a central seconds hand, a two-register layout with a 30-minute counter at 9 o'clock and a 12-hour totalizer at 6 o'clock, operating at 28,800 vph with approximately 50 hours of power reserve. Case construction incorporates a ceramic bezel and pushpiece guards, a screw-down crown ensuring water resistance to 100m, an exhibition caseback with special Schumacher engravings, and a grey dial with red accents that reference Ferrari racing colors without becoming cartoonish. The rubber strap texture mimics tire tread patterns while maintaining comfortable flexibility on the wrist.
Master Luxury presents this mint condition limited edition with original box and papers dated April 2013. Our authentication process has verified that all case numbers and limited edition markings match factory records. The association with Schumacher, arguably Formula 1's greatest driver with seven world championships, gives this watch historical significance beyond most limited editions. This increasingly sought-after reference embodies the perfect intersection of high-end watchmaking and motorsport heritage.
