The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore “Scuba Boutique” Ref. 15701ST.OO.D002CA.02 was introduced in the mid-2000s (circa 2005–2009) during a period when the Offshore line was expanding beyond its original chronograph form into purpose-built dive watches. Conceived as a boutique-exclusive edition of around 300 pieces, it was part of AP’s push to create more specialized, collector-oriented models that could only be acquired directly through its own boutiques—enhancing exclusivity and brand intimacy.

The watch features a 42 mm stainless-steel case with the Royal Oak Offshore’s signature octagonal bezel and exposed screws, paired with a rotating inner dive bezel operated by a second crown at 10 o’clock for precise timing underwater. Rated to 300 m of water resistance, it is powered by the reliable automatic calibre 2325, a 32-jewel movement beating at 28,800 vph with a 38-hour power reserve—well suited for robust sporting use. The Méga Tapisserie dial, bold luminous markers, and rubber strap reinforce its technical dive-watch credentials while keeping the instantly recognizable Offshore DNA intact.

Collectors value the 15701ST Scuba Boutique for its limited production, boutique-only availability, and role in the evolution of the Offshore as a true diver’s watch. Its combination of historic significance, rugged functionality, and AP’s meticulous finishing makes it a highly sought-after piece that reflects a pivotal creative phase in the Royal Oak Offshore lineage.
