The celebrated watchmaker Daniel Roth founded his own manufacture in 1989, with workshops in Le Sentier and Geneva. He is known for his complex and high quality timepieces, such as the present lot with tourbillon and 8-day power reserve, the instantaneous perpetual calendar and the Westminster Grande Sonnerie Carillon, which is the only automatic four-gong chiming wristwatch in production. In 2000, the firm Daniel Roth was acquired by the Bulgari Group.
