Salon Des Horlogers X Laurent Ferrier Classic Micro-Rotor

Created with the high-end retailer, Salon des Horlogers Geneva and housed within a 40 mm stainless steel case, Laurent Ferrier unveils its new limited edition. Restricted to just 25 pieces, the final result is an elegant yet resolutely modern watch.

AN EXCLUSIVE DIAL

For this new model, Laurent Ferrier and the Salon des Horlogers de Genève, revisit an Art Deco aesthetic while giving it a contemporary twist. This timepiece is intended to be resolutely original while complying with the brand’s signature design codes. The dial is enhanced with harmoniously varied tones and textures through associating a deep blue grained centre, matt white coating for the chapter ring, a sunburst brushed deep blue outer ring, a blue opaline seconds sub dial and a fine matt white transfer around the periphery. The dial is also graced with “Assegai-shaped” hours and minutes matt white coated hands enhanced with a matching baton-shaped seconds hand.

AN EFFICIENT MOVEMENT

The movement is a self-winding FBN 229.01 calibre, equipped with a unidirectional pawl-fitted microrotor and offering a three-day power reserve. A movement exclusive to LAURENT FERRIER, it is designed, assembled and adjusted in the LAURENT FERRIER workshops. It is fitted with a silicon escapement featuring a double direct impulse on the balance.

This technology developed by Laurent Ferrier enables the balance to be impelled twice per oscillation, a principle that requires two escapewheels and an appropriately shaped lever. This innovative construction, combined with the use of cutting-edge materials, maximises energy efficiency, thereby guaranteeing a high amplitude of the balance. This in turn reduces the amount of mechanical force required to wind the mainspring and optimises winding.
