The clock does not need to be studded with diamonds or must be an antique item from the 17th century to be worth a million dollars. Roger Dubuis watch brand below, though only about 20 years old, is one of Switzerland's most famous brands. Proportional to popularity, the price of this Swiss watch is also in the "sky" form.

The latest version of the Roger Dubuis line is 2013 Excalibur Quatuor , a silicon watch with 4 curved pendulum, 7 years to study and 2,400 hours to complete.

What about the price? The watch is priced at 1.1 million USD (about 24 billion VND), one of the most expensive types in the world.

4 pendulum of Excaibur Quatuor placed in 4 corners of the clock

One reason why Excalibur Quatuor has such a high price is that it escapes the image of a traditional watch but still has a very special beauty. Excalibur Quatuor also does not use Tourbillon technology (technology to increase the accuracy of mechanical watches, often found in expensive brands, crafted by craftsmen).

Instead, 4 curved pendulum are used. Technology uses new vibrating pendulum in watchmaking industry. But using up to four pendulum makes the watch work with unprecedented accuracy.

Each pendulum is set at a 45-degree angle and works extremely accurately. The sound coming from the clock is also very special. Each pendulum beats 4 times a second, and no two pendulum oscillate at the same time. That means that instead of the "ticking" sound you hear from a traditional watch, the watch is buzzing like a running machine.

With 590 separate details, the watch costs $ 1.1 million

This watch includes 590 separate details and is capable of 40 hours of active energy storage as a high-tech watch.

With silicon material, this watch is light and very durable. It is 4 times stronger than steel, but much lighter. Even though the dial is different, it is still much lighter than a standard gold watch.

And like every other precious item, Exacalibur Quatuor must be rare. There are currently only 3 silicon Excalibur Quatuor in the world, crocodile leather strap and silicon buckle.

Combining precious and rare, between incredible detail and precision, Swiss watchmakers have proved it worth a total of $ 1.1 million, even if it's not antique or tied. Any diamond.
