Roger Dubuis, A Legendary Watch is borne

ROGER DUBUIS, an unique identity code
Whether a man’s or a woman’s watch, conventional or for sports wear, medium-sized or large, with a simple, complicated or grandly complicated movement, each watch signed Roger Dubuis expresses a strong personality through immediately recognisable identity codes.
Although each collection has its own features, they always comply with the four principles of the brand:
1. innovative design,
2. within current trends
3. exclusiveness and
4. high-end technical know how
Roger Dubuis’ idea of exclusiveness is not simply commercial, but in fact a philosophical resolve. That is why no highly complicated Roger Dubuis watch in precious metal is made in more than 28 examples. This figure is not just symbolic; it actually gives full meaning to the idea of exclusiveness to which the brand is profoundly committed.
Each product line reflects the DNA of the Maison ROGER DUBUIS.

Each Model is limited to either 28 or 88 Pieces, with price from minimum USD$20,000.They have established since 1995 and had already built their own 31 Caliber with Geneva Seal! That is extraordinary sucess for a young company of just 15 years.

I like Roger Dubuis as for their Philosophy 2 : within Current Trend. Their watch design is bold, elegant and attractive. Roger Dubuis maintains a well balance of beauty and watch uniqueness. And It does not go too extreme for over fashioned that may not be long lasting with time.
I hope some of their watch will become a Classic in future. I speculate that Roger Dubuis price would appreciate for certain Model, Like MuchMore and Excalbur after 10 years!

Let's watch out!

Rolex Daytona Two Tone

I had a Rolex Daytona Two Tone with Diamond dial in 1997. That was about HKD$57,000.00.
Now Similar watch is about HKD$100,000.00 That is a Double in 13 years.
I had a Rolex SST Date just Oyster in 1982, that was HKD$5,500.00.  Now Similar one is selling HKD$55,000.00.

In Short A Rolex Watch is 10 times more expensive in 28 Years, and 2 time in 13 years..

So you could expect that your Rolex value will appreciate when you wear it, But of course we can not expect that kind of hysterical appreciation on certain model of Patek Philippe.

Well that is another kind of watch.

Oris Automatic Man's watch

Oris has been doing a lot on some special limited watch since 1980. and Some of them is quite interesting in their design. However these few years, Oris is not doing as aggressive as it was 10 years ago.  This is a big Automatic watch with Date Day display. The Display design is bold and clear with the Orange hands, it is very sportive look!
The Movement is from the Largest Company ETA.

Tudor Automatic man's watch

A 60's Tudor as it was having the "big Flower" as the trade mark at 12 O'clock position.
A man's watch for those who could not afford to buy a Rolex in the 60's and 70's., That was friends of mine liked to say about people who bought Tudor that time! Tudor was the sister brand of Rolex until 2000.
Most of the parts are being shared each other, like the cases, crown, bracelet... etc.. But I am sure this Tudor is interesting as the "Big Flower" is the one we would like to collect!

Russian Made 14K Solid Gold watch

This is a Russian made 14K pink Gold watch with manual Winding. I asked the boss of the Restaurant near by Beta hotel in Moscow to show me..Of course in the eyes of today, this is a dwarf as of today's standard for the size of a watch. But she worn it on her wrist with some kind of elegency qnd graceful gesture...
She told me it was just USD500.00, 7 years ago, that is quite reasonable as it is solid gold.
