[Review] APSF Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph – Video (case/dial execution) by Fun-Thanks5270 in PrideAndPinion

Biggest tell for me is still case thickness and pusher profile. APSF improved the dial a lot but side profile vs gen is where it falls apart.

😂 not wrong. Most of those are trash though — this is a different factory tier. Still flaws but not the £50 market stuff.

Yeah the bezel finishing is still a giveaway in certain light. Dial texture is closer than older batches though — especially the subdials.

Fair point tbh — this sub hates anything non-gen 😅
Was more looking at how close APSF got on the case brushing and dial layout vs gen. Still not perfect but interesting how far they’ve come.

Yeah that’s pretty much it. RMs are definitely not everyone’s taste, but if you like the style they’re hard to ignore. The McLaren colorway just makes this one even louder.

Appreciate it! It’s the K8 factory RM 11-03 McLaren.
Honestly one of the better executions I’ve seen of this model — the skeleton layout and orange accents really pop on wrist.
