SIHH 2013 -Roger Dubuis Excalibur Table Ronde


SIHH 2013 - Roger Dubuis Excalibur Table Ronde

The dial features 12 solid 18kt Rose gold engraved figurines of the Arthurian knights with their swords. The "table" is hand-painted enamel depicting the round table of King Arthur. At each hour marker on the table, is the name of the knight depicted, in Olde English.

Movement is the new Swiss automatic Roger Dubuis in-house caliber RD822 with 33 jewels, 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 48 hours. It is adjusted to five positions and features the Geneva Hallmark.

The case of RD Excalibur Table Ronde is in 18kt rose gold, measures 45mm. It has a sapphire crystal and it is water resistant to 50 meters.

Limited Edition of 28 Pieces

My Estimated price is HKD$1.5M yet to be announced.

My point of interests is how to make those 12 figurines of the Arthurian Knights, so real yet so small!

And I do not know if the round table can be rotated!? It would be fun as it looks like a Roulette.
