[2022 Edition] Mechanical Watches "What is the Swiss up-and-coming brand [Laurent Ferrier]?"

Hello everyone.

This time, I would like to talk about Laurent Ferrier , an up-and-coming Swiss luxury watch brand.

Traditional watchmaking, excellent performance, classical style, passion for sports ... Laurent Ferrier watches have captivated many mechanical watch fans and have won international awards. We will introduce you to the charming Laurent Ferrier along with recommended models, so please enjoy until the end.

What is Laurent Ferrier?

Laurent Ferrier was founded in 2008 when Laurent Ferrier, a long-time designer at Patek Philippe, opened a workshop with his son Christian. It is an up-and-coming luxury watch brand that incorporates elements of pocket watches, introduces cutting-edge technology, and produces original movements with beautiful mechanisms.

Laurent Ferrier was born into a family of watchmakers and learned the craft from an early age. When talking about his career, it is important to note that after graduating from the School of Watchmaking in Geneva, he started working at Patek Philippe in the early 1970s, staying there for a total of 37 years. He left his career as a watchmaker temporarily at the end of the 1970s, during which time Laurent Ferrier was active as a racing driver. He even competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans several times. It makes sense that this identity is reflected in his current collection.

When you hear the name Laurent Ferrier, the first thing that comes to mind is the striking shape of its hands and crown. The classic spear-shaped hands and ball-shaped crown, which are used in many models, are its major features.

①SPORT AUTO BLUE
"Ref.LCF040.T1.C1GC5"

The new 2022 "Sport Auto" has a sophisticated impression with its rounded curves. The case material is made of grade 5 titanium, and the case diameter is 41.5mm, which is a little large. The square case has been evolved to have a bezel with softer lines, combined with a tonneau-shaped middle case. In addition, only the sloped surface of the center link is satin finished, creating a different look. The iconic Laurent Ferrier ball (onion)-shaped crown is the brand's first screw-in type, and is water resistant to 120 meters.

The multi-shade opaline dial combines various shades of blue with an opaline finish to create a very soft impression. The new automatic movement "Cal.LF270.01", the second made by the Maison, has a power reserve of more than 72 hours.
