Catalogue Essay
In collaboration since 2020 with Revolution & The Rake with the launch of their first Laurent Ferrier Classic Origin with a two-tone sector dial and Arabic numerals paired with a Milanese bracelet. Following the success, in 2021 the collaboration released two stainless steel sector models, the Classic Origin and the Classic Micro-Rotor.

Preserved in pristine condition, the present timepiece is the Laurent Ferrier Classic Micro-Rotor sized at 40mm diameter with a contemporary twist on the dial. Giving life to this timepiece is the self-winding FNB 229.01 micro rotor calibre with a natural escapement.

Ticking all the boxes for collectors with ingenuity and beauty, the present example’s rarity is heightened by the number that is engraved on the caseback. Numbered 0/12 corresponding its certificate, this is the prototype of the series. Paired with a slate grey calf strap with Alcantara lining or the choice of a steel milanese bracelet that is equally stunning, this is a highly collectible timepiece from the collaboration.

Laurent Ferrier

Swiss | 2008
Introducing its first watch to critical acclaim in 2010, Laurent Ferrier was founded by long-time Swiss watchmaker of the same name. Following a 37-year career at Patek Philippe, Ferrier founded the brand in 2008, creating timeless wristwatches inspired by the finest wrist and pocket watches from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Revered by collectors around the world for their genuine innovations and understated elegance, the brand specializes in exquisitely hand-finished movements featuring state-of-the-art watchmaking technology. Galet, or "pebble" in French, describes the signature feature of the brand's cases used across its collection — with soft curves, domed crystals and rounded edges reminding one of a smooth pebble.

Key models include the Galet Classic Tourbillon Double Spiral and the Galet Micro-Rotor, with stunning movement architectures designed after prestigious observatory chronometer movements of the twentieth century.
