Roger Dubuis Hommage Triple-Retrograde H37 5799 8 5.6 Platinum Box and Papers

A legendary figure in the arena of independent watchmaking, Roger Dubuis learned his trade by working for several large Haute Horlogerie brands like Patek Philippe before embarking on his own endeavors. Founding his eponymous brand in 1995, Roger Dubuis’ timepieces have evolved into some of the best-regarded pieces of early high-end independent horology the market has to offer. Released in 2000, the Hommage Three-Retrograde Perpetual Calendar ref. H37 collection was produced as a limited edition series with just 28 pieces. While its platinum case is certainly classically designed thanks to its round shape and gently sloped bezel, its dial is undeniably the star of the show. Featuring three retrograde indicators, as its name suggests, this stunning white dial combines a trio of blued steel hands with an intriguing typeface and roulette-style black and red colorway to create an aesthetic that is unique to Roger Dubuis’ spirit as an independent watchmaker. By combining the aesthetic flourishes that Roger Dubuis have become so well known for, the Hommage Triple-Retrograde successfully demonstrates the artistry involved in watchmaking as the timepiece refrains from taking itself too seriously and emanates the personality of its designer in a way that links its wearer to the mind of Roger Dubuis himself, a feeling that independent watchmakers have been able to imbue within their watches to a degree that modern brands have been unable to emulate.
