Roger Dubuis, the Manufacture that set off the craze for skeleton movements back in 2005, has with this iconic timepiece given them a totally new dimension by developing skeleton movements with a contemporary appearance.
Additionally, the Genevan watchmaker has also devoted its attention to the most emblematic of all watch complications: the Tourbillon. Intended to compensate for the effects of gravity, so as to ensure that watches operate more efficiently, Roger Dubuis has gone a step further by developing a Double Tourbillon with differential to provide even greater reliability.
The skeleton double flying tourbillon movement operates the latest arrival in the Excalibur Collection, the RD01SQ calibre, that carries within it an important part of the identity of the Genevan watchmaker’s movements. It incorporates two signature devices characteristic of Roger Dubuis, the double flying tourbillon and the skeleton. This hand-wound mechanical skeleton movement has 319 parts and beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour (2 x 3 Hz) for a power reserve of 48 hours.
The Excalibur Skeleton Double Flying Tourbillon watch in black titanium can be delivered with bespoke bracelets in blue, orange or red. Like all models produced by the Genevan watchmaker Roger Dubuis, the Excalibur Skeleton Double Flying Tourbillon model in black titanium complies with all the latest requirements for the “Poinçon de Genève”.
