Excalibur 36 Edition Limitée Joaillerie

The incredible world of ROGER DUBUIS

Sometimes, audacity, spirit and talent will open doors that are reputed impenetrable. In barely fifteen years, Manufacture ROGER DUBUIS has entered the world of Fine Watchmaking and won the recognition of its peers. Now the company embarks on another chapter in its history and enters a new era. An era of greater mechanical maturity with the development of innovative movements that exactly meet the requirements of the most demanding connoisseurs; an era of aesthetic maturity with the launch of a new collection with an assertive design. This is also an era of industrial maturity with the implementation of manufacturing procedures that marry the latest technology with the precise demands of the Poinçon de Genève-Hallmark of Geneva. Tighter collections, products that target collectors and connoisseurs, entirely new global communications and worldwide selective distribution all contribute to the exceptional vitality of this daring brand.

ROGER DUBUIS is more than a Manufacture, more than a brand: it is its own world. An exciting, animated world. A world where creativity reigns supreme, where originality is king and the pursuit of excellence is truly a driving force. A brand that is intentionally extravagant, elegant and worthy of the best in Fine Watchmaking. New worlds will open up fabulous horizons and nurture the history of a young brand that loves to innovate as much as it respects the classic idiom of Fine Watchmaking. This is what makes ROGER DUBUIS unique.

Marking 2011 at Manufacture ROGER DUBUIS is the launch of the La Monégasque collection of elegantly contoured timepieces driven by exceptional mechanical movements, each bearing the prestigious Poinçon de Genève-Hallmark of Geneva and including a new chronograph calibre*.

The second highlight of the year is the unveiling of women’s models in ROGER DUBUIS’ iconic Excalibur collection.

EXCALIBUR LADY JEWELLERY

Making its debut in 2011 is the Excalibur Lady line with a model in several versions, for women only. This elegant and seductive watch catches the eye with distinctive dials, in pure ROGER DUBUIS style, and incorporates mechanical movements which have been developed by the Manufacture, each hallmarked with the prestigious Poinçon de Genève.

Combining force with subtle sophistication, these 36mm diameter models are proposed in steel, white gold or rose gold, with or without diamonds.

In addition to the triple lugs that join the case to the strap, one of the hallmarks of the Excalibur collection, this new lady’s version adopts an elegant dial, circled with stunningly tapered Roman numerals. Stretched to infinity, and an integral part of the brand’s DNA, these Roman numerals take on even greater prominence thanks to a spectacular and original construction. The numerals are formed by metallization on a sapphire crystal which then encloses the dial. This
dial is fully paved with diamonds, including under the Roman numerals.

This Excalibur Lady Jewellery model with its 560 diamonds for a total of approximately 5.7 carats is proposed in white gold, in a limited edition of 88.

The power of seduction of the Excalibur Lady Jewellery watch goes beyond its beauty. Its RD821 self-winding mechanical movement meets the exacting criteria of Fine Watchmaking. Hallmarked with the prestigious Poinçon de Genève, it has also been awarded COSC chronometer certification by the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres.
