As a tribute to the Geneva Seal, which celebrates its 125th anniversary this year, the watchmaker Roger Dubuis presents a limited-edition Excalibur Flying Tourbillon Chronograph with single-pusher. Not only will this outstanding model be the first Roger Dubuis timepiece to meet the recently unveiled new requirements of the Geneva Seal, it also underlines that Roger Dubuis is the only watchmaker to have every one of its movements stamped with the Geneva Seal, the pledge of handcrafted excellence.

The Geneva Seal celebrates its 125th anniversary this year. In tribute to this label of handcrafted excellence, the watchmaker Roger Dubuis, presents an Excalibur Flying Tourbillon Chronograph with single-pusher and power reserve display.

Equipped with the new RD580 calibre and produced in a limited edition of just 8 pieces, this outstanding model will be the brand’s first timepiece to obtain Geneva Seal certification according to the new, even more demanding specifications. Without a doubt, this marks the start of a new era in the history of Roger Dubuis and the Geneva Seal: from 2012, all new Roger Dubuis models will fulfil the new requirements that must be met before Geneva Seal certification is awarded.

Technical excellence and powerful design are the Excalibur collection’s defining characteristics. This new Chronograph with Flying Tourbillon and single-pusher, housed in a 45 mm diameter pink-gold case, is the perfect incarnation of the avant-garde spirit that personifies the Genevan Manufacture.

In addition to the flying tourbillon at 9 o’clock, the power reserve display at 12 o’clock and the 45-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock, this new arrival in the Excalibur collection is distinguished by its platinum micro-rotor, visible from the dial side of the watch. And exceptionally, this oscillating weight bears in full view on its exposed portion the Geneva Seal – normally stamped only on the movement – supplemented on either side with the inscription “125 years”. The exceptional permission to display the Seal on the micro-rotor of this new calibre incorporated in the anniversary model, emphasises that the Geneva Seal is going through a spectacular transitional year for its 125th anniversary.
