The Sympathie series was released in 1995, alongside the Hommage, as one of the first production lines from Roger Dubuis after the brand’s partnership with businessman Carlos Diaz.
- The present reference is housed in an elegant white gold case sculpted in the brand’s iconic curved square shape, and boasts the firm’s signature bi-retrograde day and date indications. The dial of the timepiece is adorned with a lavish combination of alternating dark and creamy mother-of-pearl with a yellow hue, matching the roulette red and black numbers on the week indication, and complementing the charismatic moon phases, gold hands and applied numerals.
- Powered by the in-house automatic calibre RD5710, the timepiece received certification as a chronometer from the Besançon Observatory in France and has been proudly granted with the Geneva Seal, stamped on the movement visible via the transparent case back.
- Preserved in excellent condition, this Roger Dubuis Sympathie Bi-Retrograde Perpetual Calendar is numbered 12 of a limited edition of 28 pieces, and is further accompanied by its full set of accessories.
