About Sonal Chauhan’s watch collection
Sonal Chauhan is an Indian model and actress who first gained widespread recognition after winning the Femina Miss India International title in 2005. She went on to represent India at the Miss International pageant, placing among the top finalists. Her career has spanned modelling campaigns, Bollywood films — including the Telugu and Hindi markets — and brand endorsements that have kept her a visible presence in Indian entertainment and fashion circles for nearly two decades. She has appeared in films such as 3G and Jannat 2, carving out a profile that sits at the intersection of high-fashion modelling and mainstream cinema.
The Sonal Chauhan watch collection, as tracked by Watch Paparazzi, currently centres on a single confirmed sighting, but it is a telling one. She has been spotted wearing the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore ref. 26231OR.ZZ.D010CA.01 — a 37mm ladies' model rendered in 18-karat pink gold with diamond-set detailing. The Royal Oak Offshore is one of the more technically serious pieces in Audemars Piguet's catalogue for women, powered by the in-house Calibre 3120 automatic movement. Choosing this reference over a quartz fashion watch or a more overtly decorative dress piece signals a degree of engagement with what the watch actually is, not merely how it looks on the wrist.
With only one data point in our database, it is too early to map a full pattern across her collection, but the Royal Oak Offshore reference she has chosen sits at the upper end of AP's feminine sport-luxe range both in price and in mechanical specification. It suggests a preference for pieces with genuine engineering credentials that also work within a polished, fashion-forward wardrobe — a combination that tends to characterise collectors who arrive at fine watchmaking through the fashion world rather than through pure horology.
