The "Royal Oak Offshore T3" chronograph wristwatch was developed in 2003 in cooperation with Arnold Schwarzenegger, who wore the model in his movie "Terminator 3, Rise of the Machines". It was produced in a limited series of 1000 examples, and was the largest model of the Offshore series made. The titanium case makes the watch more resistant to corrosion and wear, and is very light for its size.
