Visually stunning 3-piece limited edition …

This summer, Lionel Ladoire is introducing a special three-piece limited edition refresh of his “Roller Guardian Time” series of watches on which the bridges, strap and dial reflect a casual denim blue shade.  The watch features an offset hour, minute and seconds indications (displayed by three cages mounted on ceramic micro ball bearings) and a GMT function with fast-adjustment push-button system.  It comes on a blue alligator leather strap with a hand-sewn matt black leather lining and an articulated double pin buckle.

Priced around $150,000.

Ladoire Roller Guardian Time Blue

Three-part asymmetrical titanium case (9 – 3 o’clock: 56mm/12 – 6 o’clock: 45mm), bezel and case-back in satin-brushed titanium, case middle in grey PVD-coated titanium; • Black PVD-coated crown at 8 o’clock and corrector pusher at 2 o’clock


The last time I featured a Ladoire watch (Ladoire RGT Punk Rock, February 2010)  several commenters weighed-in that they did not like the watch.  But this did not surprise me, in fact I anticipated it in my article.  I’ll say it again here — that is, given the complexities and unconventional nature of any Ladoire watch I think you have to see them person to fully appreciate it.

The new Roller Guardian Time “Blue” which you see here certainly keeps with Lionel Ladoire’s “Haute Couture Watch Dynamic” and reflects Ladoire’s underground-rock style mood inspired by contemporary culture and some of its exponents such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, Andy Warhol and Philippe Starck.

Movement is a LADOIRE Manufacture-made movement (Calvet/o1), automatic winding via a micro rotor featuring galvanic blue circular-geometry bridges
