Unlike mass-produced chronographs this luxury watch has extraordinary rarity and a distinctive design philosophy. Collectors who own this reference typically reserve it for black-tie events, gallery openings, charity galas, and occasions where horological conversation is appreciated.
Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. The silver dial of this reference showcases exceptional craftsmanship across every element. What makes this reference truly exceptional is its combination of Daniel Roth’s signature double-ellipse case shape measuring 41mm, an unconventional size that predates the modern oversized watch trend. Domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, exhibition caseback secured by 6 screws revealing the hand-finished movement with Geneva stripes and perlage decoration.
Function include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and chronograph. The minute hand and the date wheel can be quick set using the screw down crown on the right side of case. The top right pusher starts/stops the chronograph function while the bottom right pusher resets the chronograph function.
Comes as a complete set with watch pillow, warranty book, and warranty manual.
This belongs in the collection of a discerning enthusiast who values horological artistry over brand prestige. It will especially resonate with someone who appreciates the significance of independent watchmaking history and understands that true rarity comes from limited production rather than artificial scarcity.
