Last January, Roger Dubuis revealed at the SIHH the Creative Skeleton Excalibur Brocéliande. The first piece of the trilogy was an approx. 3.44-carat, 28-piece limited edition graced with a flamboyant red strap, the set pink gold case with gem-set bezel, lugs and lange frames matching red foliage composed of semi-precious stones in autumnal colours. The overall multi-layered 3D impact is further enhanced by the slimmer bezel and flange set with a double rank of brilliant cut diamonds, while a rose-cut diamond set on the crown lends a delightful finishing touch.
The second chapter in the trilogy was exclusively unveiled at Watches&Wonders 2015: this creation is in an exclusive three-piece limited edition set with approximately 4.14 cts of diamonds. The bezel and lugs are adorned with baguette-cut diamonds accentuating the sparkle of the flange with its 10 brilliant-cut gems. They form an exquisite frame for the matching pink and purple foliage composed of brilliant-cut diamonds and semi-precious stones, dotted along slender gold wire ivy branches delicately set with diamonds. Firmly encircling the wrist on a hand-stitched pink alligator leather strap secured by an adjustable folding clasp also paved with 32 baguette-diamonds, the rhodiumed pink gold Excalibur Brocéliande boldly proclaims its quintessential femininity.
A third piece, available in a limited edition of 28, has a bezel set with 60 brilliant-cut while 157 diamonds adorn the flange. The ivy leaves are made of white mother-of-pearl, and the watch is fitted with a cherry blossom pink strap.
These ultra-feminine pieces are animated by the Skeleton Flying Tourbillon calibre RD505SQ.
