Few watchmakers embody the bridge between traditional horology and modern independence as eloquently as Daniel Roth. A young master when he joined Breguet in the early 1970s, Roth was instrumental in breathing life back into the storied but then-dormant maison. Drawing direct inspiration from the work of Abraham-Louis Breguet, he helped pioneer a new era of complicated wristwatches, reinterpreting classical watchmaking with a contemporary hand. When he founded his own eponymous brand in 1987, Roth introduced a design language that was as intellectual as it was visually distinct. His now-iconic ellipsocurvex case—a subtle fusion of round, oval, and tonneau—became an instant signature, as did his guilloché dials, rich with architectural balance and technical charm. The present chronograph is one of the purest expressions of Roth’s vision. Its pink gold case matches sublimely with the warm salmon dial, its "perlée" minute track adding an elegant flourish of 19th-century homage. Inside beats the caliber DR400, a fitting mechanical foundation for a watch that marries independent artistry with high horology. For collectors of independent watchmaking, this Daniel Roth chronograph is a cornerstone.
