Always searching for new challenges, the Manufacture ROGER DUBUIS became famous in 2005, when it presented a double Tourbillon, which it housed in the case of a completely new model, as virile as it was extravagant, called Excalibur.
The young company, founded in 1995, brilliantly demonstrated that “value creation is not time-dependent”! Once again, this new model demonstrated the astonishing symbiosis characteristic of the Brand, which comprises the close marriage between a traditional watchmaking know-how and a bold stylistic modernity.
A few years later, ROGER DUBUIS has decided to redesign the contours of this model, which has meanwhile become the Brand’s icon.The grooved bezel features more accentuated lines, the crown guard hugs the case middle more snugly, while still preserving its strong personality, and the dial exploits the deliberately deceptive asymmetry of the retrograde minute. The fully reconstructed movement, bearing the Geneva seal, powers the double Tourbillon in unison, as evidenced by the blue javelin seconds-hand, and is mounted in a platinum case enhanced with a hand-stitched alligator strap.
