  • Catalogue Essay

    - Released in 2020, the present Laurent Ferrier Classic Origin Opaline was made in a limited series of 12 examples for The Rake and Revolution.

    - Featuring an extremely refined two-tone sector dial, it is made up of a central disc in white opaline and a silver grey circular brushed outer track. Arabic numerals at 12, 3, and 9 give the final touch of balance to the sector dial. The signature blued Assegai-shaped hands are present as one would except from a classical Laurent Ferrier, however an additional set of blued steel LumiNova-filled hands are also available to render the timepiece more "scientific".

    -Made of stainless steel, the case is the classic Galet pebble-like form Laurent Ferrier is known for both ergonomics and subtlety. Turning the watch around, instead of a sandblasted black rhodium finish movement, one can notice a charming caliber LF116.01 that has been micro blasted to feature a yellow gold frosted finish.

    - In excellent condition, the present Classic Origin Opaline is further accompanied with its full set of accessories, additional set of hands, straps and bracelets and is number 1 out of a limited series of 12 examples.

  • Artist Biography

    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.
