Description

The Knights of the Round Table had a solemn motto "Courage and generosity". This motto succinctly captures the life philosophy at Roger Dubuis. Drawing inspiration from the exploits of King Arthur\u2019s knights, the Geneva Manufacture has created a series of 88 exceptional pieces distinguished by their boldness and steeped in history. With meticulous craftsmanship, twelve of these heroes, armed with their faithful swords, have been cast in gold to form a perfect circle around a magnificent dial in grand feu enamel. Underneath this \u2018round table \u2018 beats the heart of the automatic movement RD821. The scene is highly symbolic; the adventures of the famous knights were planned while seated at a round table.
