Dubai Watch Week 2025: Daniel Roth’s Tourbillon Platinum Revives a Legend from 1988

Directly inspired by the iconic Tourbillon reference 2187/C187 of 1988, the Tourbillon Platinum is a tribute to Daniel Roth's favorite complication and dedication to the timeless ideals of haute horlogerie. The revival of DANIEL ROTH began in 2023, starting with Mr. Roth's favored complications, the Tourbillon and the Extra Plat. Both models debuted with a 20-piece souscription series in yellow gold dressed in Clou de Paris guilloché, followed by regular production models in rose gold with pinstripe guilloché. Both the Tourbillon and the Extra Plat share the same design codes and horological principles, with the slightly refined double-ellipse case design and in-house manufacture calibres. The DR001 found in the Tourbillon and the DR002 that powers the Extra Plat are shape movements finished to the highest standards, developed exclusively for DANIEL ROTH by Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini, Master Watchmakers and the founders of La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton. Continuing the heritage established by the pair in gold, the Tourbillon Platinum elevates the collection with a more contemporary aesthetic that opens a new chapter for DANIEL ROTH.
