Description

Limited to 110 pieces in rose gold, this Daniel Roth Papillon was released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the brand. The watchmaker himself was involved in the development of the design and movement, with his distinctive touch being apparent in the end result.

Introduced in 1998, the Papillon was released to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Daniel Roth manufacture. Though the watchmaker had been increasingly less involved in the brand from 1995 onwards, he took an active role in the design of the Papillon, to mark this historic milestone. It is understood that this was Roth's last creation for the eponymous brand, prior to starting a new chapter of independent watchmaking, under the Jean Daniel Nicolas name.

This distinctive jump hour model takes its name from the French word for butterfly, on account of the atypical dial layout, reminiscent of butterfly wings. It is understood that only 250 pieces were ever produced, with 110 in white gold, 110 in rose gold and 30 in platinum.

The layout of this rose gold Papillon is satisfyingly symmetrical, with the oversized seconds indication sitting at the center of the dial. The dial features two different styles of guilloché, applied by hand, which contrast with the brushed surfaces of the minute and seconds chapter rings. The variety in finishing and the construction of the dial on several levels gives a satisfying depth to the design, as well as a welcome touch of variety. The "Daniel Roth" signature sits on either side of the dial, further leaning into the symmetry of the overall layout.

The piece also makes use of Roth’s signature double ellipse case, which is unique in its execution. Neither round nor rectangular, it balances the two different shapes, complemented by a stepped bezel and sharp, straight lugs. In character with Roth’s tendency to provide a new twist on tradition and history, the watch is powered by a Girard-Perregaux calibre 3000 ébauche, and is finished, decorated, and engraved by hand.

This Daniel Roth Daniel Roth Papillon is in fantastic overall condition. Superficial marks can be seen throughout the case consistent with minimal wear. The reverse of the lugs showing crisp and well-defined hallmarks as are the engravings on the caseback.

If sold within the United Kingdom, this Daniel Roth Papillon will be subject to 20% VAT.
