Mr. Roger Dubuis was drawn at an early age to the magical world of watches and clocks when, as a schoolboy, he rang the noon bells and wound the weights in the clock tower of his local church.
Equipped with a rare talent and passion, he enjoyed a distinguished career that included fourteen years in the high complications department of Patek Philippe.
Mr. Dubuis’ next achievement was to team up to construct the world’s first perpetual calendar bi-retrograde movement. At Patek Philippe, then in his own watchmaking atelier, and subsequently with the brand that bears his name, Mr. Dubuis honed his vision of seamlessly bound complexity and artistry.
It is a vision that has proved indispensable to the creation of Maîtres du Temps’ first timepiece, Chapter One. Through Maîtres du Temps, Mr. Dubuis has shared his knowledge with other masters to create unique complications, entirely modern in inspiration yet expressing the most traditional values of craftsmanship.
