Magnificient, Mike!
could you share a few more details on this piece unique? Was it made on request of the owner or was it made as a commemoration model? Also, I'd love to see more pics!
Cheers,

Chat by the fire-place with Monsieur Dubuis
Had the pleasure of sitting down with Monsieur Dubuis during SIHH for a chat. While the talk wasn't intended to be a formal interview, I found it interesting nevertheless and I would like to share with our fellow Purists here: What gave you the inspiratio...
Thank you, Jester!
Nice opportunity to better get to know Roger Dubuis, the man, and the visions that originated his brand. Now, we know how many Condottieri were made. R This message has been edited by radone on 2012-03-18 09:27:16
Great interview, thanks. Re: the Condottieri...........

Just double checked...
There were 20 made in WG & 20 in PG. Plus a few more in PW format.
Thanks so much for the info. I've only seen a picture of the rose gold version............
and have never seen or heard of the pocketwatch. Thanks again for the info. Mel

Thanks for the interview Alec
I'm delighted to hear that the Excalibur line is one of his favorites as that's my favorite line from Roger Dubuis. Thanks for the insights into Monsieur Dubuis. Cheers, Anthony
It is always good..
... to directly talk with the brand founder (if alive, I mean) to see where the brand has been, is going, and what he envisions for the brand. Thanks Jester, for this very informative interview. Best, Ken
And...
... I am next in line - when the current owner get tired of it, I will be the one to receive the first call Ken...
It was a Sympathie

Why no mention of mr. Carlos Dias?
If my memory serves me right, mr. Carlos dias is a very important persona in the establishment of RD as a brand. I wonder why mr. Dubuis did not at all mention him.
Must have something
to do with my specific questions for Mr. Dubuis! As I was mostly interested in his view/thoughts/opinion!
