Roger Dubuis uses real race tires to create these straps
Roger Dubuis has announced its newest watch and it’s a partnership with racing tire maker Pirelli. The two brands have teamed up to create the new and blue Excalibur Spider Pirelli with double flying tourbillon in a limited series of just eight pieces.
Founded in 1872 in Milan, Pirelli is a high-end tire maker that is the exclusive supplier of tires for Formula One.
Roger Dubuis for this particular limited edition watch have created straps with inlays made of rubber from Pirelli tires used in actual races. The watch itself has a double flying tourbillon with the carriages placed side by side within a highly skeletonized movement which is made of 365 parts. The tourbillons both act as sub-seconds regsiters and are surrounded by seconds tracks that are inspired by speedometers. Fittingly, the power reserve is inspired by racing car fuel gauges.
The case measures 47mm and is made of black DLC-coated titanium with blue rubber accents (blue is the official Pirelli color). The retail price of this watch is 280,000 CHF. This will be a limited edition of 8 pieces only.
