Good To Know:
- Early Chronograph
- 4th example in platinum known to come to auction
- Manual Lemania base caliber
Daniel Roth is considered today one of the most brilliant watchmakers of his generation. The importance of Daniel Roth in today’s success of independent watchmaking cannot be underscored enough. By creating his eponymous brand in the late 1980s after having worked at Audemars Piguet and Breguet, he was one of the earliest master watchmakers who decided to go independent and put his vision and talent in a watch with his name on the dial.
Upon launch of his brand in 1989, Roth immediately established his personal design language, the most obvious being the unusual ellipsocurvex shape, hands with pointed tips and dials with guilloché patterns (either Clous de Paris or horizontal stripes). The present platinum chronograph bearing number 202 houses the iconic Lemania 2320 also known as CH-27 movement that Roth refined and started reusing during his time at Breguet and used by other greats such as Patek Philippe for their references 5070, 3970 and 5970, Roger Dubuis, Vacheron Constantin and of course Breguet.
Platinum examples of this reference are extremely rare as only 3 have previously come to auction in recent years, the present one being the 4th known example. In fact the C147 in platinum was not a standard catalogue piece but more often than not a special order.
The present example features a black dial with pinstripe guillochage and striking golden numerals.
