Bi-Retrograde’s Back: Roger Dubuis Hommage La Placide
Roger Dubuis celebrates its 30th anniversary with the limited edition Hommage La Placide, a reimagining of its signature bi-retrograde perpetual calendar. This timepiece, limited to just 28 pieces, pays tribute to the brand’s classical origins while showcasing a refined design that merges mechanical ingenuity with expressive aesthetics. The watch features a traditional 38 mm pink gold case, a lively dial with retrograde indicators, and is powered by refurbished RD14 movements, highlighting the brand’s respect for its heritage and founder. The Placide's intricate dial includes a full perpetual calendar with a moon phase, constructed in multiple layers and adorned with decorative elements like aventurine glass for the moon phase. With a Poincon de Geneve certification, the automatic movement boasts a 48-hour power reserve and runs at a frequency of 4 Hz. Priced at CHF 115,000 and available exclusively at Roger Dubuis boutiques, the Hommage La Placide stands as a testament to the brand's legacy while embracing modern watchmaking standards.
