Daniel Roth

Welcome to PuristSPro.com Daniel Roth discussion board, a Daniel Roth community site and forum.

Daniel Roth occupies a unique position in Swiss watchmaking, it is a young company - founded only in 1989 - yet it makes watches that are eminently traditional in quality. Thanks to its trademark double ellipse case shape, Daniel Roth timepieces are utterly distinctive, perhaps even iconic. And Daniel Roth makes a wide range of watches, but makes precious few of them.

In essence, Daniel Roth is a tiny company that makes haute horlogerie with an emphasis on the haute; a firm that is bound by tradition but unburdened by history.

Here on the Daniel Roth forum, we aim to inform, to persuade and most importantly, to have lively debate.

By participating in this forum, you represent that you have thoroughly read and agree to abide by ThePuristS.com forum code of conduct.

We look forward to your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions.
