More on Laurent Ferrier Watches
About Laurent Ferrier Watches
Laurent Ferrier is a Swiss watch manufacturer founded in 2010 and named after its founder, Laurent Ferrier. Known for taking inspiration from the automotive industry, the watches produced by this independent watchmaker combine balanced lines, smooth contours, and neoclassical style to create a bespoke and unique appeal.
Laurent Ferrier History
Since its inception in 2010, Laurent Ferrier has become one of the legendary Swiss independent watchmakers. Still, it remains incredibly bespoke, as it is rumored that merely 300 pieces were produced in 2021.
The founder, Laurent Ferrier, was a semi-professional car racer and also worked at Patek Philippe for 30 years, as is showcased by the incredible attention to detail on the timepieces, often taking inspiration from the automotive and racing industry. Today, the company is headquartered in Plan-les-Ouates in the canton of Geneva, Switzerland, and is only sold at select retailers across the globe.
The first watch the company produced, the Galet Classic Tourbillon Double Spiral, won the 'best men's watch' at the esteemed Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève. The company was still keenly focused on technological development and saw the usage of a 'Galet Micro-Rotor', which also incorporates Abraham-Louis Breguet's "natural" escapement.
In 2018, the company was awarded the 'Best Men's Complication' award for the use of the Ecole Annual Calendar complication in the newly introduced GPHG line, displaying Ferrier's pursuit of precision combined with uncluttered beauty.
Laurent Ferrier Collections
Laurent Ferrier has a keen focus on elegance and understated luxury, even with the use of precious metals. To date, five main collections have been produced by Laurent Ferrier, all with different models within.
Laurent Ferrier Classic Collection
Originally launched in the early 2010s, the Classic Collection is an elemental model line that originally only featured three-hander models but recently saw the introduction of the Traveller model, a dual-time watch.
Only offered in Titanium and different golds, the Classic Collection remains an understated luxury timepiece with superb attention to detail and a manual wind movement within, ensuring the thin profile of the watch.
Laurent Ferrier Square Collection
The Laurent Ferrier Square collection houses a timeless Art Deco character combined with the refined finishing methods you would expect from the elite. 41mm x 41mm in dimension matched with smooth, aerodynamic curves and perfect symmetry makes the cushion one of the most striking you'll come across.
Offered in steel and rose gold, all the models are presented with a sapphire caseback displaying the micro-rotor winding system fixed between the main plate and the micro-rotor bridge, inspired by the father of modern horology, Abraham-Louis Breguet.
Laurent Ferrier Sport Collection
The Sport Collection encompasses three models, all taking inspiration from motorsport - updated in 2022 as the successor to the Sport Tourbillon. The integrated bracelet style of watch is the most popular in the modern world, and the Sport Collection rather elegantly combines this with a tonneau-shaped case. Offered exclusively in lightweight grade 5 Titanium, the Sport Collection offers a unique duality of elegance and sportiness on the wrist.
The overall design takes inspiration from 70s motorsport, particularly the Porsche models driven by Laurent Ferrier at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Other design elements remain true to the time period and the brand, including an onion-style crown and a respected 120m water resistance.
The movement within is expertly finished, visible through the sapphire caseback, and even features little easter eggs pertaining to the history and events of the 1979 Le Mans on the platinum micro-rotor.
Laurent Ferrier Galet Collection
The Galet Collection, or the Galet Classic, was the first watch ever produced by the Swiss independent watchmaker. Released in 2009, it received the Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in the "Men's Watch" category a year later. The main feature of this particular watch was, of course, the tourbillon displayed in the reverse position.
Laurent Ferrier Grand Sport Collection
Laurent Ferrier used to race at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, one of the most torturous and demanding races in human history. The Grand Sport collection was designed and created by taking inspiration from the two founders' (Ferrier and François Servanin) shared love for motor racing.
It features sleek and clean lines, offered in both gold and grade 5 Titanium. The polished and expertly finished bracelet features an integrated style, but thanks to the snug lug-to-lug, it can be worn by a variety of wrist sizes.
The current Grand Sport collection is offered with the 'high-powered engine' LF619.01 tourbillon movement. The tourbillon case is wide and has to be designed in a slightly unique manner because of the double balance springs, and it offers the wearer a robust 80-hour power reserve.

Laurent Ferrier Movements
Laurent Ferrier is certainly focused on producing some of the highest-quality mechanical movements that money can buy. They do not produce any quartz movements at all. They are perhaps most famous for their LF619.01 movement, a movement that helped win the 'Men's Watch of the Year". Another key movement in the lineup is the micro-rotor FBN229.01 caliber, featuring a winding system fixed between the main plate and the micro-rotor bridge.
Laurent Ferrier Watch Colors
Laurent Ferrier is certainly no stranger to using impressive color schemes and unique combinations to capture the eye of the consumer. However, the brand also produces some excellent watches with standard black and white dials, along with different shades of blue and gray.
One of their newest colors includes the 'Magnetic Green', presented in a sunburst fashion on the dials of the Classic range. Another loved model is the aforementioned Grand Sport Tourbillon Golden Brown, combining a beautiful sunburst brown dial matched with a rich rose gold case and integrated bracelet.
Laurent Ferrier Watch Materials
As Laurent Ferrier is at the forefront of luxury, you can expect the use of precious metals such as 5N 18K red or rose gold, often used in some of the dress pieces represented by the company. That said, with the underlying sporty architecture of the company, you can also expect steel and titanium in some of their sports-focused models.
Laurent Ferrier Watch Types
Laurent Ferrier has a keen focus on two styles of watches - sports and dress pieces. The sports models are keenly focused on integrated bracelet-style watches, with almost zero focus on divers. Conversely, the dress pieces are focused on displaying the excellent finishing methods and technological prowess offered by the company.
Laurent Ferrier Watch Complications
Laurent Ferrier is known for creating some of the most beautiful and elegant three-handers you'll come across. That said, the very first watch they ever created featured a tourbillon. This complication has remained a mainstay in the lineup, while other complications like dual-time complications have also found their way into the lineup.
Laurent Ferrier Partnerships & Brand Ambassadors
Laurent Ferrier has partnered with a few other smaller brands to create some exceptional timepieces, including the Laurent Ferrier X URWERK collaboration piece called the Arpal One, a quirky square watch that you'll either love or hate. Another is the collaboration between Laurent Ferrier and Phillips, producing the Homage II, a tribute to the step case timepieces from the 1940s.
