DANIEL ROTH Extra Flat Rose Gold – The renaissance continues

A major new step in the renaissance of the company

Following the remarkable success of the Extra Flat Subscription Edition, Daniel Roth has created a new model that remains faithful to the spirit of its founder: the Extra Flat Rose Gold. A true tribute to the brand’s golden age in the 1990s, this timepiece perpetuates the legacy of Mr. Daniel Roth, a visionary master watchmaker and iconic figure in contemporary Swiss Haute Horlogerie.

An iconic design subtly reinterpreted

The Extra Flat Rose Gold watch features the famous double ellipse shape, Daniel Roth’s signature design. This unique case, now enhanced with a horizontal central relief, gives it a perfectly balanced and instantly recognizable silhouette.

The redesigned lugs, curved and softened, have been shaped separately and then hand-welded to the case, in keeping with traditional methods. These meticulous details ensure optimal ergonomic comfort on the wrist.

Remarkably slim, the case is only 7.7 mm thick, with balanced dimensions of 35.5 mm x 38.6 mm, identical to the Extra Flat Subscription and Tourbillon Rose Gold models.

An exceptional dial crafted to perfection

The sumptuous two-tone dial embodies the perfect combination of contemporary elegance and traditional craftsmanship. Crafted from solid white gold, it is complemented by a 5N rose gold hour track and decorated by hand with a line guilloché—a vertical guilloché pattern emblematic of the Roth style.

Protected by a transparent case back, the dial reveals blackened stainless steel hands that harmonize with the Roman numerals and the individual number of each piece.

The DR002 caliber: the beating heart of the Extra Plat collection

Developed and assembled at La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton under the supervision of master watchmakers Michel Navas and Enrico Barbasini, the DR002 movement embodies a new generation of calibers dedicated to the Extra Plat collection.

Although inspired by the aesthetic codes of the DR001 tourbillon caliber, the DR002 has been designed from scratch with the ambition of accommodating future complications. Its shape echoes that of the case, creating perfect continuity between the exterior aesthetics and the inner mechanics.

Haute Horlogerie mechanics designed down to the smallest detail

The DR002 caliber embodies all of Swiss traditional expertise: large wheels highlighted, hand-angled bridges, and hand-finished components. Its 4Hz variable geometry balance, balanced by four weights, guarantees remarkable long-term chronometric stability.

The single mainspring ensures a power reserve of 65 hours, or three full days of operation — ideal for getting through a weekend without winding.

Every mechanical detail has also been designed for sensory pleasure, as evidenced by the hand-crafted single-piece ratchet, which provides a unique tactile sensation when winding.

An elegant, ultra-thin watch in the purest Roth tradition

Designed with absolute respect for Daniel Roth’s original vision, this Extra Plat Or Rose edition goes far beyond a simple reinterpretation: it embodies the masterful rebirth of an independent watchmaking house.

The warm and luminous 5N rose gold lends an elegant, refined and timeless presence, faithful to the spirit of the master.
