DANIEL ROTH Ellipsocurvex Chronomax Ref. 347.Y.70 Watch Dial
Overview
DANIEL ROTH was a Swiss watchmaker known for reviving traditional watchmaking techniques while incorporating modern complications. The Ellipsocurvex line, introduced in the late 1980s, featured the brand’s signature oval case design and high-end mechanical movements, often based on modified Frédéric Piguet or Lemania calibers. This dial is from the Chronomax series, which combined chronograph functionality with the brand’s distinctive elliptical case profile.
This is a new-old-stock (NOS) dial for the DANIEL ROTH Ellipsocurvex Chronomax Ref. 347.Y.70. The dial measures approximately 30.5 mm x 33.5 mm, designed to fit the oval case of the 347 series. It features a silver base with dark blue accents, black Roman hour numerals, and red/white minute indexes. The dial is marked with the original DANIEL ROTH | SWISS MADE text at the lower half.
The dial is unused and in pristine condition, with no signs of wear or aging. It is sold without original packaging, as is typical for NOS watch parts. The item is intended for watchmakers or collectors restoring or servicing a DANIEL ROTH Ellipsocurvex Chronomax Ref. 347.Y.70.
Specifications
Designed for the DANIEL ROTH Ellipsocurvex Chronomax Ref. 347.Y.70. The dial dimensions are approximately 30.5 mm in width and 33.5 mm in height, matching the oval case shape of the 347 series. The base is silver with a sunray or brushed finish, providing contrast for the dark blue sub-dial accents and black Roman numerals (III, VI, IX, XII). Minute indexes are printed in red for the 5-minute markers and white for the remaining minute track.
The lower half of the dial carries the original markings in black print: DANIEL ROTH at the center and SWISS MADE beneath it. The sub-dials are positioned symmetrically, with the chronograph registers typically located at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock, though the exact layout depends on the movement variant used in the Ref. 347.Y.70 (commonly a modified Frédéric Piguet 1185 or Lemania 5100 base).
The dial is made from brass with a silver-plated or lacquered surface, standard for high-end Swiss watch dials of this era. The hour markers and logos are pad-printed, a technique used by DANIEL ROTH to ensure durability and precision. The dial feet positions are original to the 347.Y.70 case design, with two primary attachment points at the top and bottom.
