The Roller Guardian Time (RGT)






Lionel Ladoire stands as part of this new generation of watch makers, profoundly rooted in the 21st century. They are a new generation of watch makers who have been changing the paradigm of the Luxury watch industry, breaking established rules and going beyond traditional boundaries. Their timepieces are presenting wildly breathtaking esthetics’s, with modern and sophisticated approaches to telling the time.

The Roller Guardian Time looks like Porsche Design on steroids. To read the time you just need to follow the red arrows. The larger dial is for the minutes, then the smaller is for the seconds, while the smallest that has two arrows and no real dial is for the seconds.

A great feature is a quick adjust for the GMT hand in both hour directions. The right side of the watch is like a paddle switch. You can adjust the second hour hand in one hour increments either ahead or behind – which is useful and nice to have. source
