Roger Dubuis’ Latest Marvel: Excalibur Double Tourbillon Cobalt Chrome
Excalibur Double Tourbillon Cobalt Chrome is the latest creation from Roger Dubuis that once again combines innovative materials with exquisite mechanisms.
This time the Excalibur comes with two flyback tourbillons in a Cobalt CarTech Micro-Melt BioDur CCM case, a material widely used in the automotive, aeronautical and space industries.
The new timepiece wears a robust Cobalt Chrome case measuring 45mm wide by 14.60mm high. It features an essentially brushed finish and polished bevels, the characteristic notched bezel and crown, domed sapphire crystal, three strap lugs, sculped crown guards, an open case back and 100m water resistance.
The open dial presents a petrol blue minute chapter ring with Super-LumiNova hour markers that we can also find on the tips of the semi-open white gold centre hands, two tourbillons held in a blue cage on the lower half that matches the star-shaped bridges in the upper half.
At its heart, the 319-component Caliber RD108 hand-wound movement reaches 21,600 Vph and offers up to 3 days of power reserve.
The new RD Excalibur Double Tourbillon is paired with a blue calfskin leather strap with a titanium triple-folding buckle, limited to 28 pieces and priced at €320,000.
