Roger Dubuis Reinterprets a Signature Complication
The Excalibur Biretrograde Calendar Blends Heritage with Modern Watchmaking
Swiss luxury watchmaker Roger Dubuis has introduced a new timepiece that challenges conventional time display. The latest creation, the Excalibur Biretrograde Calendar, is a striking reinterpretation of the brand's signature retrograde complication.
A Tribute to Technical Mastery
The watch is designed to honor the brand's heritage and its reputation for technical prowess. At the heart of the Excalibur Biretrograde Calendar is a complex mechanism that features two retrograde displays working in harmony. This innovative approach to calendar watch functionality showcases Roger Dubuis's commitment to bold and original design.
The Mechanics of the Biretrograde Display
Unlike traditional calendar watches, this model utilizes retrograde hands that sweep across an arc and then instantly jump back to their starting position. The "biretrograde" system typically involves two separate retrograde indications, which could include:
- A retrograde date display
- A retrograde day of the week indicator
- garde spirit that defines the Roger Dubuis brand. It is a statement piece for collectors who appreciate high-impact mechanics and daring aesthetics.
This complex retrograde complication requires exceptional skill to manufacture and assemble, underscoring the brand's technical mastery.
Housed within the iconic Excalibur case, the timepiece is a testament to the avant
