There’s little introduction needed for Laurent Ferrier among today’s collectors “in the know.” The accomplished watchmaker served as Creative Director of Patek Phillipe, and his highly limited timepieces are admired and collected by some of the most driven and dedicated enthusiasts in the world.
Laurent Ferrier fans extol the brand for creating what they see as the quintessential dress watch with the Galet and Galet Square lines. Watches like the Galet Classic Square Sector Dial Tourbillon Double Spiral won praise for their clean, simplistic dials, and discreet tourbillons visible only from the watch’s rear.
One of the very first brands I always pay a visit to each trade show is Laurent Ferrier. This has been the case for some years now, since 2013 or before. It’s not that I expect to see some new cutting edge technology – LF’s tourbillon and micro-rotor calibers are a few years old now and haven’t been tweaked much since inception. Rather, it’s that I am often genuinely excited to see how Ferrier will package these two outstanding calibers. So much has been done with dials over the years, and now we see a third case style that is being called “Montre École,” or school watch.
The always-bold Roger Dubuis has announced its newest watch and it’s a partnership with racing tire maker Pirelli. The two brands have teamed up to create the new and blue Excalibur Spider Pirelli with double flying tourbillon in a limited series of just eight pieces.

So, what is so special about the limited edition Excalibur Spider Pirelli? Let’s take a look.

Until now, if you wanted to admire one of the master’s incredible double hairspring tourbillons, you’d have to ask the wearer to take the watch off his or her wrist (or take it off your own wrist, if you’re a very lucky person indeed), as the Galet Classic Tourbillon was only available with a closed dial. That ends today. Laurent Ferrier has just unveiled the first Galet Classic Tourbillon with a tourbillon visible on the front – and it’s through a sector dial, no less!
Not Swiss Made but still 100% Swiss – Holy Cow! The Swiss Mad Watch is unique, symbolic, and irreverent, but most importantly, 100% Swiss and proud of it. With the Swiss Made label for watchmaking revised from January 1st, 2017, to require 60% of components in a watch to be of Swiss origin, H. Moser […]
