In collaboration with Hypebeast, Roger Dubuis presents a new limited series of Excalibur Monobalancier models. The new Roger Dubuis Excalibur Hypebeast watch features a minimalistic white ceramic design, with touches of NAVY blue, as Hypebeast signature.
This new watch houses the self-winding calibre RD720SQ. Keeping the shape of its signature star unchanged, the Maison chose to coat it in navy blue and apply the same signature colour to the flange and around the micro-rotor as well. The 42 mm white ceramic case and white strap contrast with the striking navy blue elements.
The skeleton calibres manufactured by Roger Dubuis in Geneva are the essence of the expressive singularity of the Excalibur collection. Complying with one of the most respected certifications of Haute Horlogerie, the Poinçon de Genève, the Excalibur watches are designed like contemporary works of art.
Every single component being finished by hand, the watches are symbols of passion. The work of hyper-skilled craftsmen is at the forefront of each watch with a direct view on the creative mechanics making these pieces more alive than ever.
The new development of the Excalibur collection, a calibre with improved performances: increased power reserve up to 72 hours thanks to a gear train toothing and escapement optimization through its geometry. Improved durability thanks to new lube, and increased precision thanks to 4 Hz frequency.
The Roger Dubuis Excalibur Hypebeast MB watch is limited to 28 pieces only. Found on exclusive display within the HBX New York flagship store, it will be available for purchase in Roger Dubuis’ flagship boutiques and on its website.
