Laurent Ferrier Laurent Ferrier offers alternatives to all devotees of classic mechanical watchmaking. The House develops movements crafted in harmony with the finest traditions, while enriching them with high-performing and genuinely innovative technical attributes. Designed for devotees of pure values, it updates horological fundamentals ? a renewal of origins that positions Laurent Ferrier as a well-respected member of the exclusive circle of mechanical Haute Horlogerie. A world apart from the frenzy of design trends and the quest for originality at all costs, Laurent Ferrier is rethinking the fundamentals of traditional watchmaking. The young company harks back to the origins of this expertise, while lending its own contemporary vision of movement construction. This recent development guarantees a degree of precision and reliability bordering on perfection. Laurent Ferrier immediately opted for excellence and rapidly earned chronometricprecision certification from the Besançon Observatory. Success followed swiftly, since in 2010 Laurent Ferrier received the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in the ?Men?s Watch? category for its first creation, the Galet Classic. In keeping with the Only Watch spirit involving models representing horological innovations, Laurent Ferrier again demonstrates its commitment to important causes. For this 2013 edition, it has chosen to offer the very first movement of the second version of its famous Tourbillon Double Spiral (double balance-spring tourbillon). It is duly numbered calibre ?000? and housed inside a steel case shaped like a pebble (hence the French name galet), framing a unique sand-toned grand feu enamelled dial displaying a dainty dove. The Monaco coat-of-arms is painted in tone-on-tone shades on the small seconds display. Once again, Laurent Ferrier testifies to its wish and its ability to create symbolic models, while focusing on the ?custom-made? approach for unique occasions.
