Interview: A Conversation On Provocation And Design Polarization With Roger Dubuis CEO Jean-Marc Pontroue
There are two main similarities between a Lamborghini Veneno Roadster and?the watches of Roger Dubuis.?Both take an extreme approach to design relative to their respective industries. And inside of both are skillfully crafted engines, the former automotive and the latter horological. This is not so much of a paradox for the Veneno, but more so for modern Roger Dubuis watches?because (to wristwatch purists)?they?flout most of the classical design concepts generally associated?with?beautifully-made?in-house movements. In a conversation with Roger Dubuis CEO Jean-Marc Pontroue,?he explained how the perceived incongruence between polarizing designs?and technical merit can actually work in a company's favor.HODINKEE: Why does Roger Dubuis place such a great emphasis?on producing in-house movements?when the designs are so extravagant?

Pure Perfection Incoming
Warning: Pure Perfection is constantly used here.About 10 Years ago, I got my first Rolex, a black date 16610LN, I always had an eye for that one, perfect for my minimalist lifestyle, robust for my active life and absolutely no compromises on quality. After owning it for a about 3.5 years, I made the move to my Yachtmaster. Got a deal I couldn't walk away from. The Yachtmaster had become some sort of a grail, I looked at it as the special sub, at least the affordable special sub for a 21 year old Architecture student/Entrepeneur. Today that beloved Yachtmaster of mine is gone, I decided to part ways, although a terrific watch, I always looked back at the submariner.
