  • Catalogue Essay

    The Hommage II is the result of a 2-year creative ping pong between Laurent Ferrier and Phillips in Association with Bacs & Russo. The idea behind this watch was to pay tribute to the incredible step case watches from the 1940s specifically those made by Longines and Omega, but not by creating a fauxtina vintage watch but rather to recreate the look and feel of watches from the era in a decidedly modern manner.

    The goal was not to create a design based on an existing Laurent Ferrier model but to create something completely new and other than the movement everything in the Hommage II was designed specifically for the model: the stepped case, the dial, the hands, the crown and even the Laurent Ferrier logo!

    As the case was a completely new design that did not exist within the Ferrier collection, intense discussions went into the exact size of the step, the finishing of the case and even the polishing of the tranche of the bezel. The design of the dials and their subsequent production was also extremely time consuming. The goal was to create a three-tone dial in two different versions, using the exact same colors (black, powder pink and silver) but with two completely different results: one black military inspired dial with luminous hands and indexes and a salmon example with a more “civilian” look with blued hands.

    The Laurent Ferrier logo was also redesigned to fit the overall look of the watch. Beating within, is Laurent Ferrier’s manual wind LF 116.01 hand-wound movement with frosted finish and an impressive 80 hours of power reserve.

    The Hommage II was launched in 2021 as a limited edition of 32 pieces, 16 with black dial and 16 with powder pink dial.

    To the best of our knowledge the present Hommage II is the first of its kind to appear in an international auction room, preserved in excellent condition it is consigned by the original owner.
