With a wealth of experience in repairing numerous complications, Dubuis ventured out on his own in 1980, establishing his own atelier. In 1995, he released his first collection, with the Sympathie standing out as some of his most charismatic and significant creations. The Sympathie case design is a groundbreaking departure from traditional shapes, neither fully round nor square. It strikes a balance between the two, with stepped bezels and elegantly curved elongated lugs. In an industry where the case shapes variations are very limited, Roger Dubuis introduced a truly innovative design with the Sympathie. The time-only piece represents the purest expression of the Sympathie design, stripping it down to its essential components. The pink gold applied hour markers, pink minute track, and plots create an appealing contrast against the deep black glossy surface, resulting in a well-balanced appeal. Powering the watch is the calibre 57, a Lemania based ébauche. However, the movement bears the prestigious Seal of Geneva and was regulated by Roger Dubuis himself. During the time of production, only Patek Philippe movements carried the Geneva Seal, which is why Dubuis deemed it crucial to have the same mark of quality on his timepieces. Read More Ref.
