Daniel Roth 2207BB – Grey Tapestry Dial

This is an opportunity to own one of the most elusive expressions of neo-vintage independent horology: the Daniel Roth “Seconds at Six” Ref. 2207BB, a rare early production model from 1995, housed in the larger 35x38mm ellipsocurvex case crafted from solid 18K yellow gold.

Daniel Roth—one of the pioneers of modern independent watchmaking—crafted this piece with his signature mix of classical inspiration and avant-garde execution. The vertical guilloché (tapestry) dial, rendered in a deep slate grey, is both austere and intricate, playing beautifully with light and showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship for which Roth is revered.

What sets this piece apart—and makes it highly collectible—is the early “large seconds” subdial configuration at 6 o’clock. Few examples of this dial layout exist, and it was documented in 1995 Daniel Roth advertisements, confirming this rare variation’s legitimacy. Very few have surfaced in any metal, making this watch not only a beautiful timepiece but also a true collector’s prize.

The watch is in wonderfully preserved original condition, showing only light wear consistent with age, and the movement is running smoothly. All major components—the dial, case, movement, and original Daniel Roth-signed buckle—are 100% original and untouched, with the only exception being a custom high-quality strap chosen to enhance its wearability.

Balanced yet bold, refined yet striking, this watch pairs effortlessly with both casual and formal wardrobes, making it ideal for daily wear or special occasions. It’s a testament to Daniel Roth’s enduring design philosophy and an exceptional example of independent haute horology from a now-legendary atelier.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or seeking your first truly distinctive watch, this is a rare chance to acquire an early piece of modern watchmaking history—available now exclusively at our New York City flagship boutique.

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
