ROGER DUBUIS made available to the enthusiastic fashion models the watch brand’s one-of-a-kind timepieces, some of which are worth more than €100,000 each. With grace and poise, the young ladies presented these treasures from the trend-conscious watch and jewelry brand.
Contemporary avant-garde design is the common denominator that links the collections by ROGER DUBUIS and Anja Gockel. In accord with the brand’s striving for continual renewal, ROGER DUBUIS’s choice watches and jewelry ideally complemented the German designer’s fashion show.
The ROGER DUBUIS brand began in 1995 as a courageous wager on the future.
