ROGER DUBUIS
IN CONJUNCTION WITH PARTNERS PIRELLI AND LAMBO-
RGHINI SQUADRA CORSE, Roger Dubuis will debut two
new 45mm pieces: Excalibur Aventador S (named after
Lamborghini’s flagship high-performance roadster)
and Excalibur Spider Pirelli (In titanium black DLC). The
former model is a Lamborghini-exclusive timepiece with
a choice of three Lamborghini-matched colors on the
hands, markers, and the barrel cover plate. The unusual
caliber is distinctive with an engine-shaped specially
developed for the trademark Duotor manual-wind caliber
with doubled-sprung balances. A pink gold model
(pictured below) issued in a twenty-eight-piece limited
edition will also be available. The Excalibur Spider Pirelli
boasts Calibre 820SQ, an beautifully finished skeleton-
ized automatic movement with a micro-rotor, inside a
fluted titanium black DLC skeletonized bezel and a white
rubber over-molded crown (which matches the white
stitching on the strap). The strap itself is manufactured
from winning Pirelli motorsport tire rubber and features
the tire’s distinctive tread on the interior.
