All white offshore - does this exist?
Hi. Spotted an all white offshore. Bezel , case and strap. Only stainless was on the plots connecting the white rubber strap to the case. Does this exist or am I right with my suspicions that this looked a ‘little off’ ? Any pics if it exists would be really welcomed as I cannot find any. Thanks.
Note it was a chrono with white dial Last edited by CMJ; 1 August 2019 at 09:14 PM.. Reason: Additional info |

There is a Ryder Cup white ceramic 44mm Offshore but it’s an edition of only around 100.

Is that the one that a lot of PGA AP players were wearing at one time?
I always like photos of that watch and considered trying to find one but they were so rare...i also heard some rumblings about issues with the ceramic when white? |

I’m pretty sure the Ryder cup version has a blue dial.

Gents that’s the one. Thanks for sharing. I was pretty sure it wouldn’t exist as never seen it before but now I know. Great looking watch when seen in sunny Mallorca Spain. Not sure what it would look like in the uk where the gent was from.

I actually think thats why i gave up my search of the white ceramic at the time (ie i was hoping they would come out with a blue dial...but they seem to have abandoned the white altogether)

According to AP the white ceramic takes about 10 times longer to machine as it’s so much harder. The white faced version was too white IMO, it looked like it might glow in the dark. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
