added another Roger Dubuis to my collection this time its the 42mm Excalibur
this piece has caught my attention for a long time but never pulled the trigger
however I was in Beirut a week a go and couldn't resist it any more so I treated myself to this one
I love this watch for its understated and somehow subtle look but all the while is full of RD characteristics
the Excalibur 42mm with sleight grey dial
the size is perfect...
the dial color is beautiful...
the famous RD specialty micro-rotor (wont be true RD without it!)...
Watch buys in Beirut?
blame the media for that my friend, beirut is great and loads of fun
and he foooooooood oh the food
all the luxury experience you will find in Beirut , all of highend brands in fashion (from tom ford to H&M, hermes bottega venta LV chanel....) and haute houlorgy is thereuet, (MB&F, De Bethune, Richard Mille, patek, VC, breguet, LANGE, AP PAENRAI HUBLOT but to name a few)
a lot of heavy Lebanese collectors as well
the scenery is just beautiful you have the green mountains then the Mediterranean sea , although infrastructure is a joke and definelty need revamping but I guess its just a part of what Beirut is
night life is amazing as well a lot of hip clubs and rooftop lounges (IRIS, SKY BAR, CAPITOLE, WHITE...etc)
restaurants an abundance of any cuisine you desire French ,Chinese, Italian, Vietnamese, Greek , Arminian, Japanese and ofcourse LEBANESE
you should visit Beirut if you have a chance
Congrats on your RD addition!
I absolutely love the new 'trimmed' down Excalibur 42 series..
The smaller size and the lack of crown guard just makes it so much more classical. Hopefully we'll see more great complication executed on this case.
