Roger Dubuis Orbis in Machina Central Monotourbillon: Haute horology in constant motion

The first thing that comes to mind with Roger Dubuis is its distinctive architectural designs and sharp aesthetic quality. In particular, its skeletonised dials allow the wearer an intimate look with the intricacies of the mechanical movements. Each timepiece boasts a unique expression that is sure to impress even the most savvy collector

The Roger Dubuis Orbis in Machina Central Monotourbillon is no different. Featuring a rare centrally mounted tourbillon, this piece is a testament to the Maison’s penchant for the complex and remarkable in haute horology. Limited to only 28 pieces in circulation, the Orbis in Machina Central Monotourbillon’s concentric revolving stage is a sight to behold.

Instead of revealing a conventional dial from the front, the timepiece boasts its eccentric detail and engineering through a sapphire crystal. Symbolising the unique expressivity of the Maison, it is adorned with concentric circles in contrasting pink gold and grey, with multiple levels of circles set at different heights.

Noticeable here, too, is the fact that the Orbis in Machina Central Monotourbillon borrows most of its styling cues from the Excalibur. The sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating reveals from beneath the brilliant skeleton of the central flying tourbillon, complemented of course by a standard 72-hour power reserve. The watch’s display is all encased in a beautiful 18-carat Pink Gold case, with the same Pink Gold bezel and crown. Each detail is tied together by Roger Dubuis’ signature black calf leather strap.

While the front tells the story of a bold and modern engineering, the back, on the other hand, reveals the traditional art dedicated in crafting the watch. Apart from the monotroubillon seen through a sapphire crystal case back, the timepiece is elaborately interconnected by sliced bridges and rounder lines. Adding to these are 19 specific hand-finishing techniques that honour the Roger Dubuis calibres.
