Laurent Ferrier & Natural Escapements

Hmm...
I don't know about LF's actions and why they're doing this. I have not conversed with them in a long time. On a slightly related but totally different string of the same thought... I wonder if the new Rolex Land Dweller with the Rolex version of a natural...
Good question
In reading more about the Landweller it’s not actually a natural escapement like LF or Breguet but a flavor of it since both wheels aren’t directly driving the gear train. Now that I read about it, I kind of want that watch. Sounds like Rolex is set up fo...
