From Tuesday May 24th to Sunday May 29th 2016, Roger Dubuis supported a series of the most accomplished vehicles ever built and stars of motor racing as they cover over a thousand miles of Europe’s best driving roads.
The heady cocktail of luxurious hotels, Michelin starred cuisine and exclusive Formula One involvement culminated in a vantage point from a beautiful super yacht berthed right in the centre of the action to experience the Monaco Grand Prix, the jewel in the crown of motorsport.
This lifestyle experience for which the exclusive and inspirational Run To Monaco is famous, together with the blend of superb form and function and cutting-edge materials of which the world’s top supercars are composed, are strongly reminiscent of the entire Roger Dubuis ethos. People with style and a taste for luxury. Discreet individuals seeking different means of self-expression. This is the world of Roger Dubuis.
Symbolic of this synergy, for the 2016 Run To Monaco, the Excalibur Automatic Skeleton appears in a dynamic new interpretation clad in a high-tech composite known as carbon fibre sheet moulding compound (SMC). The use of this avant-garde material – twice as light and twice as hard as steel – in the creation of the Excalibur Automatic Skeleton results in a supremely sporty, patently technical look.
Complementing the state-of-the-art materials and luxurious leather typical of super cars, an alligator leather/rubber strap sets the perfect finishing touch to the timepiece.
“Despite its reputation for the ultimate in luxury, the Run To Monaco is pitched as a relaxed event. There is no rushing. What could be more in keeping with our commitment to the exceptional and our perception of time than the unparalleled and total quality of this unique mix that makes the Run To Monaco so much more than just a drive?” asks Roger Dubuis’ CEO, Jean-Marc Pontroué.
