Well, that depends.
I really like the brand and have four RD watches so take my words in that context. I've voted with my dollars.
You're correct in that RD hasn't seemed to garner the support of the watch collecting community but remember, we are but a small segment of the
market. Their earlier models were, in my view, breath taking, innovative, stylish and creative with design elements combining current trends and old
World design elements. Recent designs have been pushing the envelope and that's not always accepted by us collectors. I, for one, wish they would
return to the more classically styled designs but hey...............I'm a member of the Boring Traditionalists Club (BTC)
They make a high quality watches, all bearing the Geneva Seal and at the current discounted street prices they are a tremendous bargain in my
opinion..........at least some of them are, if you like a particular style. They had some serious USA distribution problems and I think that's why we've
seen so many heavily discounted watches on the market. I think this has contributed to their loss of cachet. I read that those problems have been
resolved now. 
If you're looking for an investment, don't look to Roger Dubuis. If you want a beautiful watch to wear and enjoy and if you find a watch you like and the
price is worth it to you, then buy it. I'm extremely happy with mine and plan on continuing to wear and keep them.

Dubuis- Are they really worth it?
Well, that depends.
Wow!
They are beautiful watches.
