Roger Dubuis stands out as a trailblazing independent horologist who established his own label during an era when most of his peers were engaged with established brands, either crafting movements or restoring timepieces. Drawing inspiration from his tenure at Patek Philippe and its exquisite creations, Dubuis introduced two distinct models: the traditionally round Hommage and the distinctively designed Sympathie with its unconventional case. The Hommage chronograph showcased here, encased in 46mm of pink gold, is a homage to the bygone era of watchmaking excellence. It boasts the Geneva seal Calibre RD 56, which is based on the Lemania 2310, the same movement found in the celebrated Patek Philippe reference 5070. The current lot in pristine condition and accompanied by its full suite of accessories, is the 8th piece in a limited series of 28. It is a beautiful timepiece that evokes the era when now-renowned figures like F.P. Journe and Roger Smith were crafting some of their most iconic creations.
