Daniel Roth Small Second 207J

Daniel Roth Small Seconds 207J Salmon Dial Steel Box and Papers

Founded in 1989, Daniel Roth is long-established as one of the early entrants in the independent watchmaking space that has since ballooned with brands like Urkwerk, MB&F, and Richard Mille launching from the foundations that Daniel Roth laid. With their distinctive styling, fresh take on design, and technical prowess, the watchmaker quickly rose to fame. An emblematic example of their watchmaking style, this stainless Small Seconds ref. 207J features a stunning salmon dial with vertical pinstripe guilloche engraving and concentric satin-brushed finish found along the chapter rings of its main dial and subdial at 6 o'clock. Pairing distinctive arrow-shaped blued steel hands with heritage-inspired black Roman numerals, this Small Second example's styling is unique in that it blends design cues rooted in watchmaking tradition with Daniel Roth's own innovative take on the industry's design processes and inspirations shining brightly through their signature ellipsocurvex case - much like Richard Mille and Franck Muller who are both well-known for their use of the tonneau-shaped case, with both brands even being viewed as the reason for its re-emergence. However, unlike those brands, the ellipsocurvex case was certainly not well-known before Daniel Roth came around and used it, but now it is; such is their power as a watchmaking icon.
