{"product_id":"daniel-roth-le-sentier-automatic-as12096","title":"Daniel Roth \"Le Sentier\" Automatic","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"143\"\u003eThere are watches that follow tradition, and then there are watches that quietly rewrite it. Daniel Roth falls firmly into the latter category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"145\" data-end=\"554\"\u003eFounded in 1989 after a formative tenure at Breguet, Roth brought with him a deep respect for classical watchmaking — and just enough independence to bend it into something entirely his own. His now-iconic double-ellipse case became an instant signature, neither round nor rectangular, but something more architectural, more considered. It’s a shape that doesn’t shout, yet once seen, is impossible to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"556\" data-end=\"974\"\u003eThis “Le Sentier” Reference 177 from the 1990s is a perfect expression of that vision. Housed in a 35mm yellow gold case, it features a beautifully executed silver \u003cem\u003eguilloché \u003c\/em\u003edial with 'Roman' numerals and slender blued hands — all the codes of traditional watchmaking, subtly reframed through Roth’s unique lens. Simply displaying the hours, minutes and date, the proportions are elegant, the details deliberate, and the overall effect is one of quiet sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"976\" data-end=\"1323\"\u003eInside, a high-grade automatic movement based on the Girard-Perregaux 3100 provides the mechanical backbone. Finely finished with \u003cem\u003eCôtes de Genève\u003c\/em\u003e, 27 jewels, and a 46-hour power reserve, it’s a caliber that speaks to Roth’s insistence on substance beneath style. Paired with an alligator leather strap, the watch wears as effortlessly as it reads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1614\"\u003eAnd perhaps most compellingly, the timing feels right. With LVMH recently breathing new life into the Daniel Roth name, the manufacture is being rediscovered by a new generation of collectors — many encountering, for the first time, just how forward-thinking these early pieces truly were.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1616\" data-end=\"1849\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eIn a world increasingly drawn to the loud and the obvious, this is something else entirely — thoughtful, restrained, and deeply collector-driven.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daniel Roth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42689182990423,"sku":"40993115","price":33950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/files\/AS12096_40993115_DANIELROTH_18kYGTimeanddate-6.jpg?v=1777030868","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/daniel-roth-le-sentier-automatic-as12096","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
