The Giant’s Causeway: Where Magic Begins

Along Northern Ireland’s dramatic coastline lies a natural wonder that sparked this horological masterpiece. Here, hexagonal basalt columns rise majestically from the sea. According to legend, this mystical landscape once hosted Merlin himself. The wizard drew power from these geometric formations. Today, Roger Dubuis captures this same energy in their latest creation. The watchmaker transforms this geological marvel into a miniature world of mechanical artistry.
