A Sympathie Minute Repeater in platinum
This Roger Dubuis Sympathie Minute Repeater in platinum is a very rare and impressive timepiece.
The guilloché dial is stunning, but I find the subdial at 3 o'clock a bit empty, personally.
The shape of the Sympathie case is gorgeous.
But I'm not fond of the shape of the bridges of the caliber RD 26 and I hate the laser-engraved sapphire.
The caliber is chronometer certified, though, and it bears the Geneva Seal.
Side by side with a rose gold Sympathie Chronograph.
And with a Daniel Roth Perpetual Calendar.

What do you think about this Minute Repeater?
Of course, we would need to be able to listen to it: this is why I am adding below a video review by Tim Mosso of a white gold Perpetual Calendar Minute Repeater.
Thanks for looking.
Best, Emmanuel

I agree that it doesn’t sound very first class.
And the platinum case is probably less resounding than the white gold on the video. Great case shape and guillochage nonetheless…
also 28 pce ?
Like all their watches back then ? Or less in this case? Most were 28 but another dial, hands, dial colour gave them the opportunity to make another 28 LE run. In this case probably 1 run, or even less than 28
No, I think only 9 pieces here.
And, based on the photo of the movement, the first example here seems to be 09/09. Best, Emmanuel
