Roger Dubuis has revisited its Excalibur Knights of the Round Table watch with a dramatic Arthurian dial scene using Murano glass.

This latest Excalibur Knights of the Round Table watch sees its micro-sculpture knights surround not the round table, but an ominous crack in the ground, glowing red hot.

The effect is created using small, hand-assembled slabs of black Murano glass, created on the island of Murano in Venice, while the red magma effect is achieved using red lacquer. The 12 knights – which are represent hour markers and are cast in 18K rose gold – stand inside a ring of blood red Murano glass, which is also inset into the crown.

To offer a different view of the scene, a deep ring of transparent sapphire crystal sits between the bezel and the 45mm 18K rose gold case. 

Powered by the 4Hz automatic Monobalancier RD821 calibre, the Excalibur Knights of the Round Table Boutique Edition is limited to 28 pieces and available via Roger Dubuis boutiques, priced $343,000 USD.
