Echoing the beginning of the brand in the 1990s and on the heels of the most recent launch, the new DANIEL ROTH Extra Plat Rose Gold builds on Mr. Roth’s legacy of tradition and High Watchmaking. As with the Extra Plat Souscription, the Extra Plat Rose Gold is powered by the new calibre DR002, developed and assembled by La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton under the supervision of Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini. The idea of an ultra-thin dress watch was a favorite of Mr. Roth. While the Master Watchmaker already had the silhouette of the original model in mind in the 1980s, the first Extra Plat Automatic watch would not see the light of day until 1990, a year after the launch of the Tourbillon C187. While honoring the original design, the rose gold 5N case retains the iconic double-ellipse silhouette with a centered gadroon for a balanced profile. Its redesigned lugs feature softer curves and a downward angle to ensure a more comfortable fit. Aligning with the tradition of the DANIEL ROTH signature double-ellipse case, the Extra Plat Rose Gold case has been magnified with a reduced thickness of 7.7mm, further enhancing its exquisite profile. Maintaining the design principles inaugurated with the Tourbillon Rose Gold, the Extra Plat is made in rose gold 5N and features an open caseback. It showcases a two-tone dial, with a base crafted from solid white gold and a rose gold 5N chapter ring for the hours and minutes. The dial is elegantly decorated with handcrafted guillochage en ligne, or pinstripes guilloché. This warm and modern tone of the 5N alloy enhances the watch’s refined elegance, seamlessly bridging traditional craftsmanship with contemporary sophistication. “Rose gold is a luminous and captivating precious metal, offering a contemporary allure while remaining deeply rooted in classical watchmaking” says Matthieu Hegi, Artistic Director of DANIEL ROTH.
