I think we have at least one watch in common in each of our collection
Care to guess which piece it is?
And thanks for the compliment, Robin. Singapore truly has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to independent watches. I'm like a fat kid in the candy store each time I travel there, even if I'm just browsing.

Getting my feet wet
Greetings to forum members. This is my first post here, and this is about my first independent purchase. The journey to my Laurent Ferrier was a bit of coincidences. I randomly read about the brand a few years ago as I was researching for information on w...
Welcome to you
You certainly chose one of the best watch on the market today in my opinion. I am a little bit jealous of you ;-)
Good to have both of you here.
welcome to the community and I'm indeed looking forward to hear from your journey with this beautiful Laurent Ferrier. For me, micro-rotor calibers are a very nice way of going automatic. Kind regards, Kolosstt
A very fine choice
Now you just need to wear it on the right wrist - which is, of course, the left wrist!
Too bad I'm a lefty
The fact that I wear my watches on the right wrist has indeed limited some of my options... Astute observation by you, sir.
Ha!
Do you have any left-side crowns in your collection? If we are being honest, there are few watches with such sturdy stems that you would brave an adjustment while wearing it, so the whole argument is moot - in fact, it's probably better to aim it up your ...
Don't have any left-side crowns in my collections...
But I was referring to pieces that have off centre dials on the right, the likes of MB&F LM101, and Gronefeld one hertz... It's much harder to tell the time when the watch is tucked underneath a shirt cuff since I'd wear them on my right wrist. As for...
ah yes of course!
Well at least the LM1 has the two dials, and the Lange 1 is perfect for the right wrist... As for crowns, agreed, not many - best to go crownless a la Ressence or Freak etc!
For a second watch purchase...
It seems you indeed did your homework, and have great taste. A dream watch for dressy three-handers IMO! Regards, skyeriding
Wish I would've been bold enough to pick this up as my second watch
Thank you skyeriding. This isn't my second watch. I only discovered the brand while researching on another piece that had become my second watch. It's the journey that counts I suppose...
Wow! Lovely!
This is a truly incredible watch that will certainly stand the test of time and be as impressive in 50 years as it is today. Wonderful. Congratulations
Fantastic Watch Congratulations
This I think is the most beautful iteration of the micro-rotor range. I recently had the pleasure to visit the atelier of Laurent Ferrier if of interest to you... www.watchprosite.com
Would love to visit the atelier and meet with the man too
Thank you for your sharing, hashluck. Congratulations on your LF piece and the wonderful trip. I haven't had the opportunity to meet with Mr Ferrier yet. Hopefully in the future... Having a personal interaction with the man behind the pieces we love would...
What a beauty, very discreet and elegant. Welcome and what a grand entrance first post!
Hope to see more of you nice entries. Rgds Raymond
Fantastic catch
I got to,see this piece at a GTG with Mr Ferrier. It wast his first showing in the USA. I loved it. Wear in the best of health Best Joe
GTGs and opportunities to meet with the watchmakers are really cool
Thank you Joe. While I haven't met with Mr Ferrier, I've been to a few other events where I could interact with the brain behind the watches. It really helps me better understand their design philosophy and subsequently have a deeper appreciation of their...
Congratulations Ken.....
For your fine taste and a superb time keeper. One of the finest "simple" watch in my opinion. Cheers............with envy Francois
Welcome kykw!
What a wonderful watch - and as you said, the blue minute track is really a killer! Feel free to share your other pieces, too and hope to see lots more from you
Welcome to the Independents world. What is great first post. Any LF is a gem, an this ena
What is great first post. Any LF is a gem, an this enamel dial with stylized Roman numeral is to die for! Joseph
Eager to explore the wilder side of independent too
Thank you Joseph. LF definitely falls into the classic category among independents, but I'm also interested in the more avant garde pieces. This could well be my next target.
Welcome to PuristSPro!
And what a fantastic first post! Your Laurent Ferrier is such a beauty! Love the dial and of course the beautiful movement Enjoy in the best of health! Cheers Robin
