Laurent Ferrier "Only Watch" 2011

 

Thanks to the gracious hospitality of Mr. Olivier Muller,CEO of LF, I was privileged to view the LF "only watch" during his brief stopover here in HK. It felt lighter in the metal than the other pieces and I soon found out why : to my surprize it was in stainless steel! Immaculately finished in a brown sunbeam guilloche dial and of course with the Galet micro rotor. The movement has yet to be finished but already showing signs that it will become a classic. I particularly liked the bridge over the rotor and the fact that it will have a full 80 hrs. of power reserve.

The watch will be auctioned off along with others in Monaco on 22nd. Sept.2011 in aid of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Make your bid for a good cause!

Some quick pics. ( for better photos of the watch. pls. take a look at Ken's post further down.)
