- Laurent Ferrier founded his own brand in 2010 following a distinguished 37-year career with the famed Swiss manufacturer Patek Philippe. His personal aesthetic follows traditional Swiss craftsmanship with innovative and contemporary design. His first collection, the Galet, is sleek and minimalist with a timeless design resembling the smooth organic shape of a pebble, and mechanical movement with micro-rotor.

- Building upon this acclaimed foundation, the Galet Square retains the signature bevel-less construction while presenting a more contemporary wrist presence.

- Within beats the impeccably finished LF229.01 movement. Its most poetic feature is a fan-shaped, solid-gold micro-rotor, suspended from a gracefully arched bridge that calls to mind a crane in repose, set against a backdrop of fine perlage and Geneva stripes. The movement further distinguishes itself with a double direct-impulse escapement—inspired by Abraham-Louis Breguet’s natural escapement—which enhances efficiency by conserving energy and stabilizing amplitude.

- Made for Parisian retailer Antoine de Macedo (whose name is very discreetly printed above the seconds subcounter), the present example is part of an elusive limited edition of only 5 pieces.

- The present Gallet Square comes with its full set of accessories.

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.
