Laurent Ferrier at BaselWorld 2010
Laurent Ferrier is a watchmaker in Geneva with over 30 years of experience at Patek. After years of dreaming he set out to create with his son and two others a watch movement "to be the pleasure of watchmakers".
He has achived this goal. Very classical, understated, his watch is a real beauty, here in white gold with a black dial.
The tourbillon movement stands out with it's use of a Straumann double hairspring. According to Mr. Ferrier this double hairspring, two identical hairsprings placed at 180° and inverse to eachother to negate and unsymetry and center of gravity affects, produces results and an ease of regulation that he didn't expect.
Unfortunately these pictures taken under poor lighting conditions on a running watch do not show the hairsprings very well.
Notice the level of finishing of the cage parts.
The version in yellow gold with a white dial.

Very pretty!
I like the dial, but LOVE the movement. For me, this watch is best viewed from behind! Thanks for bringing us more information about this new (to me) independent watchmaker. Cheers, Daos
Thanks Don.
I like the movement tremendously. The Patek/Geneva influences are very apparent. - SJX
Thx Don
Among the independents, this watch certainly stands in a class of its own. Both the dial design and movement are exquisite. Can't wait to see it in the flesh. Regards Sam
