The Story Behind the Bumblebee
Launched in 2009, the Royal Oak Offshore “Bumblebee” (ref. 26176FO.OO.D101CR.02) got its name from its bold black-and-yellow vibe, making it a standout in the Offshore collection, born in 1993. It was the first to bring forged carbon cases to AP’s mainstream lineup, following the 2007 Alinghi limited edition. This game-changer made carbon fiber a signature AP material, blending rugged style with cutting-edge tech.
Craftsmanship & Production Details
The Bumblebee’s 42mm forged carbon case, paired with a tough ceramic bezel, is light yet nearly indestructible. Each case’s unique carbon pattern comes from compressing carbon fibers with resin under extreme pressure, creating a one-of-a-kind look. Powered by the calibre 3126/3840—a self-winding movement with 59 jewels and a 60-hour power reserve—it’s built on AP’s in-house 3120 with a Dubois Depraz chronograph module for precision timing.
Distinctive Design That Pops
The Bumblebee’s black “Méga Tapisserie” dial is a showstopper, with yellow accents on Arabic numerals, chronograph subdials, and the tachymeter flange. Yellow rubber-clad pushers and crown add contrast and grip, while the black hornback alligator strap with yellow stitching, secured by a titanium AP folding clasp, screams bold luxury. It’s a watch that demands attention in Dubai’s flashy scene.

Scarcity & Exclusivity
Not a limited edition, but produced only from 2009 to 2012, the Bumblebee is tough to find in good shape. It comes in three variants: 26176FO.OO.D101CR.01 (no luminova), .02 (luminova, PVD steel back), and .03 (titanium back). With production stopped, its rarity fuels collector hype, making it a hot investment piece in Dubai’s luxury market.
