Icon6 Your Favorite Offshores!

If you could have any Offshores in your collection, which would you choose if price and value were not factors? Based only on how they looks and feel on your wrist.

I personally like:

Bumble Bee
H series Rubber Clad
Carbon Diver
Black Themes Bracelet
Grand Prix Carbon

Yes RG RB2 is pretty fantastic, but I like these ones.

Any of the forge carbon ones would be good.

Rose Gold or White Gold versions of the "Goliath" probably, but also Platinum RB2 and Platinum GP.

Don't have a wrist shot I am afraid, but I do like this. Yes I know that my tastes are questionable!

My fav is still my Panda ROO 42 on sing f1 strap, then my grand prix, then rose gold 44, then blue scuba, then...... lol

Panda is still stunning to me, and the one i really fell for ! Rubberclad was my initial favorite AP, and I still have mine and never wear it.. It's looking very dated to me now a days :/

I like mine ... But if price is no object, I could be happy with a RG Schumi.

It's the Goliath, there's a steel version, a WG version and a RG version - very very rare indeed 48/12/12 pieces).

Another for the RG RC - of course the RG Schumi is the ultimate but so far out of reach it doesn't even register...

I'll have to make due with this for now:

Indeed - I have been doing some research and can't find anything beyond what I posted - it's a 2013 release and has the newer movement. Strange! And accordingly, I want one!

Well that's was I was thinking Martin too, but it's on the Royal Oak Club database, which is legit as far as I am aware.
