About Laurent Ferrier Watches
Laurent Ferrier, a master watchmaker with over 37 years at Pre-Owned Patek Philippe Watches">Patek Philippe , launched his namesake brand in 2010 with a singular mission: to create understated, high-performance timepieces that honor Swiss tradition while embracing modern aesthetics. As an independent brand , Laurent Ferrier operates with creative freedom, allowing for exceptional mechanical innovations and hand-finished artistry rarely found at scale.
The earliest Laurent Ferrier models, like the Galet Classic Tourbillon Double Spiral, signaled a bold technical statement with a subtle exterior. Over time, the collection has expanded to include designs such as the Galet Square, Galet Micro-Rotor, and the Grand Sport Tourbillon, each watch grounded in restrained beauty and horological precision.
Key Materials, Finishes, and Complications
Laurent Ferrier watches are crafted in noble metals such as stainless steel, 18k white or red gold, and platinum. The brand's signature dials come in elegant hues ranging from slate grey and opaline to soft salmon and ice blue, often complemented by drop-shaped hands and applied hour markers. Timepieces may feature micro-rotor automatic movements, tourbillons with double balance springs, or annual calendars, all housed within distinctive pebble-shaped cases.
The standout movement is the FBN Calibre 229.01—an in-house micro-rotor caliber with silicon escapement and exceptional finishing throughout, visible through open casebacks. Ferrier's designs are prized not only for technical merits but also for their thoughtful proportions, soft lines, and organic wrist presence.
