Roger Dubuis has consistently demonstrated a penchant for impertinence and extravagance, combining state-of-the-art technology with the traditional métiers. Living by the motto NO RULES, OUR GAME, the Maison proves once again it is the most exciting way to experience Hyper Horology with the launch of the new Excalibur Single Flying Tourbillon.
An icon restyled for the new world. To mark the launch of the inimitable skeleton design reinterpreted with a contemporary touch, Roger Dubuis is set to celebrate modern art in all its shapes. Taking form in Hyper Horology with the Maison’s most recent interpretation of the Excalibur Single Flying Tourbillon, this icon of watchmaking is brought to a whole new level; a masterpiece that cannot be ignored, just like its wearer.
A contemporary masterpiece for the wrist, this new interpretation showcases one of the most sophisticated complications in Haute Horlogerie, the Single Flying Tourbillon, hosted in the new RD512SQ calibre. A calibre rebuilt from bottom to top in an architectural feat that sees the Roger Dubuis star now levitate freely above the barrel.
This exceptional timepiece boasts a strong visual identity with its powerful two-line signature, namely a repetitive pattern of two lines that meet but never touch. This strong and iconic feature can be observed throughout the timepiece such as on the crown and bezel, the arms of the star, the hour markings and the hands.This dynamic aesthetic is amplified by the Poinçon de Genève, the most demanding signature in fine watchmaking, requiring manual decoration of each and every component of the watch.
A testimony to Roger Dubuis’s horological supremacy and craftmanship, this latest interpretation of the Excalibur collection makes use of disruptive and innovative materials. An optimized Flying Tourbillon movement with a radically optimized 72-hour power reserve, a 16% weight reduction thanks to a cobalt and titanium upper and lower cages, and a new lubrication that facilitates transmission. Proving no detail goes unconsidered, non-magnetic material is used inside the tourbillon to better serve the wearers and improve their experience.
Comfort is key, which is why a range of entirely new strap sizes have become available. With 5 sizes from 0 to 4, finding the perfect strap ensures the buckle is always centred on the wrist, as a Quick Release System offers ultimate flexibility. A 42mm case only available in eighty-eight pieces per version: Dark Grey DLC Titanium, Cobalt Chrome CarTech Micro-Melt BioDur CCM™ and the new EON GOLD.
