Roger Dubuis SIHH 2009 LIVE pics of the new models

Roger Dubuis is retiring the following several lines:
Too Much
Much More
Hommage
Sympathie
Golden Square

RD's following new policy this year will be the standard for future models:
28 pieces - for high complications
88 pieces - for gold pieces such as a chronograph
288 pieces - for steel chronographs
888 pieces - for steel time only pieces


Roger Dubuis Easy Diver
- The Easy Diver comes in 3 sizes now:  40mm, 46mm, and 48mm
- New model of the Easy Diver is the Easy Diver Chronograph in rose gold & steel w/ different dial variants




- Roger Dubuis has a new Easy Diver Ladies' Collection which accounts for the new 40mm size.
- Watches come with mother of pearl inlay and the option of with diamonds or without diamonds.
- Bezel is uni-directional.




Notice the carbon fiber around the screw area on the lugs in the below picture.


The rubber padding on the caseback is new, and the backside of the rubber strap has a checkered detail (sorry can't see in these pictures) which is a nice little feature of the new rubber strap.




In the below picture, notice that the inner bezel is lined with "Easy Diver" printing.  This is only done on the inner bezels of steel pieces only.  None of the gold pieces have this feature.












Roger Dubuis Excalibur
- There really isn't anything new with the Excalibur line except different colors and metal case combinations. 
- Case sizes for the Excalibur:  39mm, 42mm, and 45mm









Below are some of the new Ladies' Excaliburs with abalone dial inlay.  Dubuis seems to want to expand its ladies' line from looking at this year's pieces.







Roger Dubuis King Square
- There's a new King Square Ladies' Collection which consists of colors such as purple, brown, and white dial versions as well as pave or non-pave.  These new pieces are more fashion pieces IMO.
- For the men's King Square pieces, Dubuis is offering a new chronograph version.  Only the regular chronograph versions (not the perpetual calendar or other combos) bear the Geneva Seal.
- Men's chronographs are offered in chocolate, black, and white dials.  Orange is the only bright color version this year.


The deployant head is lined with rubber which is an interesting look.










Notice the 3-plane shape of the King Square case in the below picture.




Ladies' King Square models:















Roger Dubuis Excalibur Double Tourbillon Skeleton
- Rubies in the inner bezel as the 5-minute markers
- Movement is black rhodium plated
- Platinum case
- 28 pieces

A very stunning and absolutely beautiful piece IMO!  If you want a refined watch that makes a bold statement, this watch has your name all over it.
