NEWF Edition — Red Natural Rubber Strap

The NEWF edition of the Roger Dubuis Excalibur Skeleton Tourbillon RDDBEX0938 represents a highly ambitious undertaking within replica horology. Replicating the distinct astral skeleton architecture of the Excalibur line requires significant tooling precision, particularly when housing a functional high complication. This specific release distinguishes itself by utilizing a true flying tourbillon escapement rather than a superficial open-balance wheel, offering collectors a mechanically authentic alternative to the genuine piece.

Powering this reference is a customized manual-winding clone of the RD509SQ caliber. The movement architecture has been heavily modified to mimic the star-shaped bridges and perlage finishing found on the authentic Roger Dubuis mechanism. The tourbillon cage rotates at the 7 o’clock position, providing the correct kinetic visual expected from the Excalibur line. Operating at standard clone tourbillon metrics, the movement yields approximately 36 hours of power reserve on a full wind.

The 42mm case is constructed from 316L stainless steel, finished with an 18K rose gold plating that closely approximates the genuine alloy’s warmth. The deeply notched bezel and signature triple lugs are sharply milled, transitioning seamlessly into the custom-molded red natural rubber strap. The skeletonized dial layout provides an unobstructed view of the geartrain, maintaining appropriate depth and dimensional layering.

Movement: Custom RD509SQ Manual Winding Clone (Flying Tourbillon) — Approximately 36 hours
Case Material: 18K Rose Gold Plated 316L Steel, 42mm diameter
Bezel: 18K Rose Gold Plated Fluted Bezel, accurate notch spacing
Crystal: Scratch-Resistant Sapphire with clear AR coating
Bracelet: Red Natural Rubber Strap with Rose Gold Plated Folding Clasp
Water Resistance: >10 Meters — professional pressure test recommended before swimming

This reference is tailored for collectors who appreciate avant-garde, high-complication aesthetics. It serves as a technically impressive conversation piece that balances complex mechanical replication with striking wrist presence.

Description

NEWF Roger Dubuis Excalibur Skeleton Tourbillon RDDBEX0938

The NEWF execution provides a mechanically functioning flying tourbillon within a highly accurate 42mm skeletonized case architecture.

Powered by Custom RD509SQ Clone

This piece is driven by a customized manual-winding clone designated to replicate the RD509SQ. The caliber is built upon a reliable Chinese flying tourbillon base, heavily modified with decorative plates to emulate the genuine astral skeleton layout. The tourbillon cage itself is properly detailed, featuring the signature Celtic cross design. Regulation is managed directly via the tourbillon escapement, delivering an acceptable beat rate and stability for a high-complication replica.

⏱ Accuracy Profile:

±10–15 s/day. This is the standard operational tolerance for manual-wind clone tourbillon calibers, requiring consistent daily winding for optimal isochronism.

✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
✅ Complications: Hours, minutes, flying tourbillon
✅ Winding Direction: Unidirectional manual wind

Technical Specifications

THE BUILD18K Rose Gold Plated 316L Steel

Maintains the genuine 42mm diameter with sharply defined triple lugs. The alternating brushed and polished facets on the complex case geometry are executed with high precision.

THE DIALSkeletonized Astral Layout

Features an unobstructed view of the geartrain and flying tourbillon. Accentuated structural elements match the genuine depth, with crisp printing on the outer flange.

THE BEZELFluted Rose Gold Plated

The signature deep-notched Excalibur bezel is accurately milled, providing the correct light play and aggressive aesthetic inherent to the reference.

THE STRAPRed Natural Rubber

Custom molded to integrate seamlessly with the unique triple-lug design. Secured by a well-toleranced 18K rose gold plated folding clasp.

Why NEWF for This Reference?

Many collectors ask: “Why not standard automatic clone factories?”

Previous iterations of the Excalibur from lesser-known makers relied on standard open-heart automatic movements with faux bridges. NEWF integrates a true manual-winding flying tourbillon, drastically reducing case thickness to align with the genuine 42mm profile and eliminating the visual tell of a hidden rotor.

Full Disclosure: The 18K rose gold plating, while visually striking, will not possess the exact specific weight of solid gold, and the manual winding action of the clone caliber feels inherently heavier than the genuine RD509SQ.

Collector Q&A

Q: Is the tourbillon on this NEWF RDDBEX0938 fully functional?

A: Yes. Unlike lower-tier replicas that use an open-heart balance wheel to simulate a tourbillon, this NEWF edition utilizes a true mechanical flying tourbillon escapement that regulates the movement.

Q: How does the case thickness compare to the genuine Roger Dubuis?

A: By utilizing a manual-winding clone movement rather than an automatic base with a decorative plate, NEWF manages to keep the case profile extremely close to the genuine 42mm dimensions, avoiding the bulky proportions seen in older replicas.

Q: How durable is the 18K rose gold plating on the 316L steel case?

A: The factory uses an advanced plating process that is highly resistant to standard daily wear. However, it is still a surface treatment; deep scratches or heavy impacts will reveal the underlying 316L stainless steel.

Q: What is the primary operational quirk of this specific model?

A: The manual-winding tourbillon movement requires careful, deliberate winding. Because it is a delicate clone complication, users should stop winding immediately upon feeling resistance, and it yields a shorter power reserve (approximately 36 hours) compared to the genuine’s 70-hour capacity.
