{"product_id":"roger-dubuis-sympathie-1","title":"Roger Dubuis Sympathie","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eBorn in Geneva in 1938, Roger Dubuis’ formative years were spent immersed in the traditions at Longines, followed by a fourteen-year tenure at the revered Patek Philippe. This crucible of experience forged his ideology, shaping every line that would later define his aesthetic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe Sympathie drew inspiration from the rare 1950s Longines Reference 846, and became his canvas. While every Sympathie is exceptional, it was this exact flagship reference, the Bi-Retrograde Perpetual Calendar; which Roger himself chose to wear. The sheer audacity of the design and shaped crystal is matched only by its extreme scarcity: production ceased at just 28 pieces. Twenty-eight. Not a misprint, but a deliberate, defiant limitation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIn an era when competitors were content with predictable designs, Dubuis challenged the establishment. He did not just make watches; he orchestrated them. And to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Roger Dubuis brand, the manufacture is now re-issuing of some of these earliest models. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eSo, it is with a profound sense of privilege that we present our third such Sympathie as a rare full collectors set; 3 from just 28 made with 2 sitting firmly in our private collection. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Dubuis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44121013452823,"sku":null,"price":55500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0165\/1838\/files\/FEA6912D-A420-4101-9924-73EBFE8F98CA.jpg?v=1766243504","url":"https:\/\/www.highendtime.com\/products\/roger-dubuis-sympathie-1","provider":"HIGHENDTIME","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
