Excalibur Spider series was released as early as 2015 and now looks like the most successful watch of Roger Dubuis in recent years. The breakthrough of the brand process and the bold visual impact make people unforgettable. Together with the unique design, all the elements add a mystery felling to the watch.
The overall visual effect of watch
One-piece hollow technology leaves consumers a deep impression. Using carbon fiber carbon-fiber (CF) as a high-tech material, the watch not only scratches and prevents bumps, but also reduces the weight of the watch. The RD820SQ self-winding movement with the interstellar hollow design has a strong visual impact.
Why choose the high-tech material Carbon Fiber (CF)
CF is a new type of fiber material with high strength and high modulus fiber with carbon content above 95%. It is a microcrystalline graphite material obtained by processing organic fibers. Carbon fiber is lighter than metal aluminum, but its strength is higher than that of steel. And it has corrosion resistance and high modulus. So it is an important material in defense military and civilian use.
It not only has the inherent intrinsic properties of carbon materials, but also has the soft processability of textile fibers. It is a new generation of reinforcing fibers.
In addition to the hollow process of the movement, Roger Dubuis created a hollow case, rim of dial and hands in the Excalibur Spider collection giving a multi-level look and a unique 3D visual effect to watch.
Unlike traditional hollow watches, the interstellar hollow of Roger Dubuis is a modern way to make watches. The movement is designed to expose as many active components as possible while still retaining unique aesthetic elements. The hollow hour or minute hands are covered by a luminous coating with bright red edges offering a simple and clear reading. The right half is the iconic five-pointed star hollow splint of the interstellar skeleton, and the upper left is the skeleton eccentric swing.
Engraved with the logo of brand, the crown is also made of carbon fiber. The unique three-stroke lugs and triangular pit bezel (the unique texture of the carbon fiber material on the side of the case) of brand add strength and mechanical beauty to watch. Black rubber strap with black folding buckle is comfortable and safe to wear.
The watch is equipped with the Roger Dubuis RD820SQ hollow movement that is fully refined in accordance with the Geneva Seal Standard. Roger Dubuis once again confirmed the skill in the control of technology and aesthetics: the delicate craftsmanship of gears and various finishing treatments.
Sum up:
As the most distinctive watch of Roger Dubuis, its impactful appearance, top-notch movement technology and polishing are impeccable from the outside.
