Catalogue Essay
The importance of Daniel Roth in today’s success of independent watchmaking cannot be underscored enough. By creating his eponymous brand in 1987 after having worked at Audemars Piguet and Breguet, he was one the earliest master watchmakers who decided to go independent and put his vision and talent in a watch with his name on the dial.
He immediately created an unmistakable signature design with the ellipsocurvex case shape, hands with pointed tips, and dials with a horizontal or Clous de Paris guilloché patterns.
Launched in the early 1990s, the present monopusher chronograph uses a vintage Lemania 2220 ébauche from the 1930s. Only 52 examples were made, 16 in platinum and 36 in yellow gold (such as the present example).
