The Excalibur is a model of elegance and lightness that reveals extraordinary mechanical complexity...
In 2013 at the forthcoming annual Salon of Haute Horlogerie SIHH 2013, January, in Geneva watch company Roger Dubuis will present the Excalibur Table Ronde, a limited series of 88 watches. The designers tried to revive the legend of the Round Table of King Arthur and his knights with the creation of this model.
The watch dial is created by analogy with the picture of Winchester Round Table, written in 1552. On an enamel disc is shown a round table of King Arthur with the Tudor rose and diverging from the centre contrasting stripes. As the hour markers are the 12 gold figurines of knights with swords uplifted to the center. 45 mm gold case with beveled edges perfectly emphasizes the dynamic design of the dial. A black crocodile leather strap with a buckle in 18 K rose gold completes the new "knightly" model.
