Leading the Line
Roger Dubuis has a deep and authentic connection to the chronograph- with a heritage that stretches back to its earliest years and its very first watch. Following the Monovortex™ Split-Seconds Chronograph, which introduced the future of the Roger Dubuis chronograph at Watches and Wonders earlier this year, the Excalibur Spider Flyback Chronograph signals the long-awaited comeback of this complication to the Maison’s collections. It encapsulates that history of know-how, while making a rapid step forward, identified by the advanced development of some of the most complex techniques.

The RD780 Calibre Revealed
If chronograph construction were a sport, the new RD780 would be in pole position. As always, Roger Dubuis has not been afraid of a challenge. As a Flyback, this chronograph is already at a more sophisticated standard of savoir-faire, enabling the instantaneous restarting of the timer function while the chronograph is running.

Further proof of the calibre’s extraordinary craftsmanship is its vertical clutch. Compared to a horizontal design, the vertical clutch is known to be more precise when starting the chronograph, improving accuracy at the moment that matters. Viewed from the caseback, it also recalls the gear-system of supercar design, yet again making a valid connection to the world of motorsport. But Roger Dubuis has not stopped there.

Performance For Modern Life
Reaching 72 hours of power reserve, this calibre then changes focus, facing up to the modern challenges of shock, gravity, and magnetism. Tilted at 12°, the balance wheel at 9 o’clock has raised its level of inertia to the same standard as a tourbillon. This ensures a strong resistance to everyday knocks, as well as the negative effects of gravity, which the Maison has long been obsessed with solving. Meanwhile, the diamond-coated silicon escapement wheel is paired with diamond-coated silicon pallet-stones, ensuring sublime anti-magnetic qualities.

Dynamic From Every Angle
The exterior of this 45 mm timepiece is no less impressive than its stunning calibre. Accelerating to yet another level, the case is crafted in lightweight carbon and reveals a perfect combination of sharp lines and signature notches - and a symmetry that is typical of the Excalibur Spider collection. It’s a streamlined look that accentuates the nature of speed. Along with skeletonised pushers, the case is matched by a ceramic bezel – hyper resistant to scratches and less likely to tarnish over time. Together, the carbon and ceramic are a tribute to supercar construction, which often integrates the very same materials into sensitive and vital components such as brakes.
