About the brand

Roger Dubuis

The Founder

Beginning his career at Longines in the 1950s, Roger Dubuis would go on to achieve critical acclaim for his body of work at Patek Philippe - where the Swiss-born watchmaker spent 14 years working in the storied Maison’s complications department.

 

An avid disciple of complicated watchmaking, Dubuis’s first significant freelance commission came in the mid-1980s - when he collaborated with Jean-Marc Wiederrecht (founder of complications firm Agenhor) on the production of a retrograde perpetual calendar module.

 

After meeting designer and businessman Carlos Dias, Dubuis was able to establish his own eponymous label, which began production of watches in 1995. He remained with the business until 2003. 


History

First unveiled to the public in 1995, Roger Dubuis was set up with the ambition of producing watches to rival the quality and beauty of Patek Philippe: where Dubuis himself had worked for over a decade on a range of fine mechanical complications.

Nowadays, often associated with rare bi-compax chronographs like the Sympathie 37 - made during the brand’s nascent days in the 1990s - Roger Dubuis became part of the Richemont Group in 2008. That acquisition caused a radical shift in the brand’s identity, and today, it’s not uncommon for younger collectors to know the Excalibur collection of oversized technical watches as intimately as they do the historic Hommage and Sympathie lines.
