完整圖錄內容
GOOD TO KNOW
• Numbered 3 of 28 pieces, with rare Sympathie shaped bezel and crystal
• Complete set with original certificate of origin, hang tag, solid caseback, chronometer certificate, and other accessories
• Very well-preserved case and dial
When master horologist Roger Dubuis passed away in December 2017, he left behind a legacy of meticulous watchmaking and avant-garde designs. He began his career in the 1950s with Longines, working as a watchmaker in their after sales department repairing the iconic 13ZN chronograph caliber, and then he moved to Patek Philippe as a master watchmaker in their complications department. Dubuis established his own atelier in 1980 and created his own brand when he released his first collection in 1995.
Produced while Roger Dubuis was still leading the company, the present Sympathie is a wonderful and early chronograph example with its flowing case and shaped sapphire crystal surrounding a cream color dial with dot indexes with Breguet numerals at 12 and 6, and red minute indexes. The movement was regulated by Dubuis himself, and sent to the Besançon observatory to be chronometer certified. Though only 34mm in diameter, the shape of the case and extended officer-style lugs add additional gravitas and presence to the wrist.
Thirty years since its production, the present S34 retains all of its original accessories, a truly impressive feat, coupled with an extremely well-maintained case. The case still shows sharp facets and hardly any wear, and is fitted with the original strap and buckle.
