  • Catalogue Essay

    Following the success of their initial collaboration, Phillips and Laurent Ferrier shared the desire to create a limited edition timepiece that would be accessible to all collectors.

    A first for Laurent Ferrier, the case design of this collaboration is inspired by the Tre-Tacche models produced by Longines and Omega during the 1940s. Initially, there was a dilemma regarding the dial color, as vintage Tre-Tacche wristwatches typically featured either a silver or glossy black dial. To find the best solution, two variations of a 16-piece limited edition were ultimately created. One variation features a black dial with luminous syringe hands, while the other showcases a more classical dress watch aesthetic with powder pink dials and blued leaf hands.

    To further pay homage to watches from that era, Laurent Ferrier incorporated a vintage-inspired logo with a typeface reminiscent of the 1940s. Additionally, the text "Fab. Suisse" and "Swiss Made" located at 6 o'clock are reminiscent of the "double Swiss" dials commonly seen in mid-20th century timepieces.

    Turning the watch over, the calibre LF 116.01 reveals an all-new frosted gilt finish across its bridges and plates, providing a reflection of vintage movement finishing. This design is truly breathtaking and serves as an interesting homage to the 1940s. In excellent overall condition and with all the accompanying accessories, we are delighted to present this exceptional timepiece, as it makes its auction debut.
