  • Catalogue Essay

    When Roger Dubuis introduced their radical Excalibur collection in 2005, it revolutionized the brand with a futuristic, skeletonized aesthetic that marked a striking departure from previous designs. Built on bold contemporary architecture, the Excalibur embodies the manufacture's integrated watchmaking prowess and pursuit of innovation.

    The Excalibur Monotourbillon exemplifies this spirit, showcasing the maison’s signature star-shaped bridge with a flying tourbillon at 7 o’clock. Skeletonization creates alluring negative space to spotlight the one-minute flying tourbillon, allowing it to hover unimpeded. Mirror-polished and made of lightweight cobalt and titanium, its technical artistry mesmerizes. Powered by the cal. RD512-SQ, the airy yet substantial composition achieves perfect balance. Meticulous hand-finishing meeting the Hallmark of Geneva, from the pink gold open worked hands and markers filled with black Super-LumiNova to the satin-brushed lugs, elevates the aesthetics to art.

    Complete with its full set of accessories and further offered in "like-new" condition, the present example in pink gold numbered 22 of a limited edition of 88 pieces embodies Roger Dubuis' unrestrained horological vision.
