Roger Dubuis continues to push the boundaries of haute horology with the Excalibur Spider Flyback Chronograph DBEX1138, a 45mm skeletonized marvel in 18K pink gold, limited to 88 pieces. True to the brand’s philosophy of “skeletonized to the extreme,” the watch reduces every element, from case to hands - to its purest form, showcasing the intricate movement beneath.
This piece doesn’t just tell time; it embodies adrenaline and daring mechanics. The Excalibur Spider collection captures the spirit of the brand’s hedonistic tribe, thrill-seekers who embrace a fast-paced life, break records, and redefine the rules of luxury timekeeping. Every detail reflects this ethos, infusing the excitement of racing and outdoor challenges into a skeletonized design that offers World Premiere as a shared DNA.
The watch combines a pink-gold case with lacquered accents and sapphire crystals treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides. Water resistance is rated at 10 bar (100 meters), higher than many other display-back chronographs. Its multi-layered dial frames the movement with a black lower flange and a pink-gold upper flange, rhodium-plated screw-style hour markers filled with Super-LumiNova, and bold, luminous hands for perfect legibility.
As a flyback chronograph, timing can be restarted with a single press. The automatic movement is fully visible, with modern bridges, a three-dimensional layout, and a visible gear train that demonstrates Roger Dubuis’ mechanical mastery. Owners also benefit from an interchangeable black rubber strap with the maison’s Quick Release System and a triple-folding clasp featuring titanium blades and a pink-gold cover, perfectly complementing the case.
The Excalibur Spider Flyback isn’t just a timepiece; it’s a statement of adrenaline, precision, and avant-garde design, a rare opportunity for collectors to own a watch that lives and breathes the thrill of extreme mechanics.
