Roth left Breguet in 1987 to start his own brand in 1988. - Encased in Daniel Roth’s signature double-ellipse case, the present timepiece is an excellent example in stainless steel. - One of the most appealing facets to Daniel Roth’s watches is undoubtedly the stunning hand-finished details. The classic Breguet motif showcases a delicate filet sauté guilloché and is found surrounding the exquisite cabochons dotted adjacent to the Roman numerals. The even finer filet sauté guilloché patterns decorates the three registers at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock. - On top of the dial, the flamed blued hands in the classic Roth arrow style, are a superb accent to entirety of the dial. - Inside, and thankfully visible through the sapphire caseback, is the caliber DR500, based on the famous Zenith El Primero movement, also used by the very first Rolex Daytona. - Preserved in attractive condition, the present watch is a prime example of Daniel Roth’s finest craftmanship.
