Condition Assessment:
Overall Condition: Pre-Owned — Excellent
This Pulsion Flying Tourbillon shows minimal signs of wear and has been carefully maintained throughout its ownership. The watch presents beautifully with its rose gold case and intricate skeletonized movement displaying exceptional finishing.
Dial, Hands & Crystal: Excellent
The skeletonized dial architecture, rose gold hands, and sapphire crystal are in flawless condition with no visible marks, scratches, or imperfections. The openworked movement displays crisply through the dial side, with all bridges and plates showing proper finishing and no signs of damage or corrosion.
Case & Bezel: Minor Signs of Wear
The 44mm 18ct rose gold case shows light surface marks from normal wear—typical for a pre-owned precious metal piece and easily polished if desired. The distinctive Pulsion case architecture with its angular lugs and layered construction maintains sharp definition. The rose gold bezel remains in excellent condition with no significant scratches.
Bracelet/Strap: Minor Signs of Wear
The leather strap exhibits minor signs of wear consistent with use. The rose gold deployment clasp functions properly with light surface marks. A fresh strap can be fitted if desired for a like-new appearance.

What Makes This Roger Dubuis Special:
The Pulsion Skeleton Flying Tourbillon represents Roger Dubuis at its most technically ambitious and visually dramatic. Unlike a standard tourbillon mounted on both sides, a flying tourbillon is cantilevered from a single point—eliminating the upper bridge for an unobstructed view of the rotating escapement cage. This engineering feat requires exceptional precision and demonstrates mastery of haute horlogerie complications.
Roger Dubuis is one of only a handful of manufactures whose movements carry the prestigious Geneva Seal (Poinçon de Genève)—a certification requiring that every component meet the strictest standards of finishing, assembly, and accuracy. Each bridge must be hand-beveled, each screw slot polished, each surface decorated to perfection. The skeletonized architecture of this movement places that finishing on full display, transforming mechanical function into visual art.
The Pulsion collection showcases Roger Dubuis's distinctive design language: bold case architecture with angular lugs, layered construction, and aggressive proportions that command attention. At 44mm in rose gold, this is not a watch for the timid—it's a statement piece for collectors who appreciate both technical achievement and avant-garde aesthetics. The warm rose gold contrasts beautifully with the industrial precision of the exposed movement, creating tension between classical precious metal craftsmanship and modern horological engineering.
Founded in 1995, Roger Dubuis has established itself as one of the most technically ambitious independent manufactures, producing movements entirely in-house with Geneva Seal certification across the entire collection—a claim few brands can match. The Pulsion Flying Tourbillon exemplifies this commitment to excellence, offering complications and finishing typically found only in watches costing significantly more.
