This watch was made after the 50 piece Millenium Roth
Feb 20, 2021,10:41 AM
In 2000, Roth made 50 pieces (numbered on the back 1-50) for the Millenium. Power reserve, moonphase, 3 styles of guilloche on the dial. Manual wind, see through back.
It was a big hit and sold out - but only 50 were made so demand was much higher than supply.
The watch you pictured was made in series afterwards, and in a larger case with more standard Roth movement, as a slightly different version of the Roth Millenium 2000.

Thanks for the thoughts and photos.

Indeed.

I recently became aware of the Millennium 2000 run x50. The larger case size and solid gold case back of the one pictured above marks it out as part of the follow up. So would you say that this follow-up run began in 2002 or 2003? That would appear to tal...
