I said the new watches wash up on our doorstep in an attempt to be humourous and witty; that’s because these new pieces are ..read more

BY HARLAN CHAPMAN-GREEN A visit to Roger Dubuis’ booth at Watches & Wonders Geneva is always a treat both for us as watch nerds there in person but also for you as watch nerds who get to look at our photos (that sounded insulting, it wasn’t meant to be, go find a Roger Dubuis dealer near you and try them out!).
