A brief disclaimer: I am writing this article before I have officially experienced the renowned Roger Dubuis booth at Watches & Wonders — a booth that always makes an impression at the Palexpo, so I will have to report back on that. Anyways — each year, Roger Dubuis focuses on its core value, Hyper Horology, which is also reflected in its insane booth designs (from the robot dogs wandering the booth last year to the timely performance the year prior) — and this year, it seems to be no different. The brand continues to push horological boundaries into a new echelon with the debut of the Excalibur Monotourbillon in titanium and a super limited edition Excalibur Double Tourbillon set with 108 gems. Ahead, discover the Roger Dubuis 2024 Watches & Wonders novelties.
Roger Dubuis continues to redefine the art of watchmaking with its audacious new Excalibur Sunrise Double Tourbillon, unveiled at Watches & Wonders Geneva 2024. This masterpiece, limited to just 8 pieces, dazzles with 108 gems set in a gradient mimicking the vibrant colors of dawn, encased in 18K pink gold and powered by the intricate RD108SQ movement featuring dual flying tourbillons for unparalleled precision. Representing over 20 years of mastery in tourbillon design, the Excalibur Sunrise Double Tourbillon not only showcases Roger Dubuis’ commitment to innovation and craftsmanship but also stands as a bold statement of luxury and mechanical brilliance, inviting connoisseurs to experience the pinnacle of Hyper Horology™.
Roger Dubuis also introduces the Excalibur Titanium Monotourbillon, constructed from Grade 5 titanium for supreme comfort and durability, making it perfect for the adventurous spirit. Limited to just 28 pieces, the watch features the Calibre RD512SQ with a distinctive flying tourbillon at 7 o’clock, encapsulating Roger Dubuis’ mastery in a design that’s as sporty and elegant as it is ergonomic. The Excalibur Titanium Monotourbillon is a testament to the Maison’s innovative spirit, catering to those who carry a boldness within.
Roger Dubuis presents the Orbis in Machina, a marvel that embodies the fusion of tradition and modern innovation. This watch, limited to 88 pieces, showcases a central tourbillon within its 18K pink gold case, a first for the Maison’s main collection, symbolizing the brand’s journey from past craftsmanship to contemporary design. The Orbis in Machina stands out for its unique aesthetic, featuring contrasting concentric circles and a skeletonized caliber visible through its sapphire crystal back, all adhering to the prestigious Poinçon de Genève certification.
