DUBUIS
ROGER DUBUIS CONTINUES TO FOCUS ON ITS LAMBORGHINI SQUADRA
CORSE PARTNERSHIP by debuting two new 45mm Excalibur Adventador S skele-
tonized watches. One, the Excalibur Aventador S Blue, is made from the same C-SMC
carbon as that used on the actual Lamborghini cars. The sporty piece is held to the
wrist with a black and blue bi-material strap (with a quick-release clasp). The blue color
code is maintained by the blue rubber over-molding on the case and crown and blue
markings on the fluted carbon bezel. Eighty-eight will be made.
The second debut, the Excalibur Adventador S Pink Gold, is a limited edition of 28
pieces made with a pink gold bezel atop its carbon case. Both watches utilize Roger
Dubuis’ contemporary high-tech skeletonized RD103SQ caliber with dual inclined
Double sprung balances with a differential. Each balance vibrates at 4 hz, both
powering a jump-second time display to emphasize its heightened precision. The
movement is the brand’s first jumping second model; Roger Dubuis has received five
patents for the RD103SQ. And as is always the case at Roger Dubuis, both these watches
are stamped with the Geneva Seal.
Also look for new hues within the firm’s Excalibur Spider Pirelli collection. New this
year: an Excalibur Spider Skeleton Automatic Pirelli in black titanium with a choice
of deep blue or white accents.
