Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26238CD Blue Ceramic Offshore Strap Guide

The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore 26238CD, known as the Blue Ceramic Offshore, is a 42mm chronograph cased entirely in blue ceramic with a matching ceramic bracelet, released in 2023 to mark the 30th anniversary of the Royal Oak Offshore. It was produced alongside the black ceramic 26238CE as one of two colourways created for the anniversary, and together they represent the first time AP had cased the Offshore's original \"Beast\" bracelet design entirely in ceramic rather than metal.

MIDAS straps are designed as a direct-fit aftermarket replacement, so there's no compromise swapping away from the factory bracelet.

Fitment guide: does a MIDAS strap fit my Royal Oak Offshore 26238CD?

The 26238CD ships on an integrated factory bracelet. The bracelet end links are built into the bracelet itself, so you'll need to separately source replacement strap end links before fitting a MIDAS strap, this reference is not a direct swap out of the box. Once fitted with the correct end links, an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore rubber strap connects using the supplied MIDAS tang buckle.

Every Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore rubber strap from MIDAS is engineered for this end link design once converted.

About MIDAS

MIDAS was founded in London in 2019 with a simple goal: to create a better alternative to the OEM Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore strap. The factory strap is expensive, stiff and uncomfortable over time. For a watch as bold as the Royal Oak Offshore, we felt collectors deserved better.

We set out to create a premium aftermarket AP rubber strap that is more comfortable, more affordable and available in colours that do justice to the watch. Inspired by the world of performance cars, from Porsche GT racing to Ferrari, every MIDAS strap is designed to complement the bold character of the Royal Oak Offshore.

Customer wearing a MIDAS rubber strap on an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore

I have bought straps from another brand costing almost twice as much, but these are just as good, if not better. They are very comfortable, fit perfectly and are easy to swap. Highly recommended.

Customer wearing a MIDAS rubber strap on an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore

I first bought a black strap because the OEM rubber felt too stiff. MIDAS straps are much more comfortable, and I prefer the slimmer profile. I chose something bolder for my second purchase.

Customer wearing a MIDAS rubber strap on an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Diver

A great product and buying experience. My Diver had become a little boring, but this strap gave it a fresh look and much more wrist time. Fast shipping and excellent communication throughout.

Customer wearing a MIDAS replacement rubber strap on an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore

I wanted a replacement after my OEM strap cracked. I did not expect an aftermarket AP rubber strap to feel this good. It is more flexible, grips well and matches the dial perfectly.
