‘’Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication‘’
When you see a Laurent Ferrier Galet in metal, you’re twice convinced Da Vinci is so right!
my preference have always been a square case, so walked in yesterday to see the Galet square in metal at the Antoine de Macedo in Paris.
I’ve read plenty of articles, seen video reviews on the Galet square having similar design cues with a Radiomir case – so I took my 721 for comparison (with a thought how simple a LF could be?). I’m so wrong, seeing one in metal you’re sure the look & feel of the Galet square is impressively different, elegant...
Frankly, with the bad iP pics I didn’t even want to try taking a shot of the movement – that is one heck of a movement finish if I may say!
One more thing, I was equally intrigued by the round 'galet' pebble design case – except for few brands, i always thought it is 'too normal' for a watch...
Anyone who travels to Paris, take time to visit this boutique - i can promise you'll be the kid in the chocolate factory !
Great post...
precisely Mr Gatsby !
i agree, the round case will complete the collection (to make it well rounded ;-) )
Thanks for reading through...
Best,

I see that you were at the " Devil's playground "! ;) I would rather compare the Ferrier square case with the case of a PAM 587 and 662, for instance.
oh yes...it was in deed a great place to be in !
i think the LE blue is at its best in the Galet round case as it is - better not to touch something that is near perfect !
Square case is well done - i'm confused to choose 'the' dial, every option seems good over the other :-(
i've sent you a texto Nico. Lemme know s'vp.
Best,
mahesh.,
The Blue is one of the best, in my opinion as well. But a nice enamel dial, with a red 12... Hmmmmm... Answer is on its way. ;) [nt]
wonderful! And may I ask...
the silver vertical grain dial is Galet model...
what was impressive on the Galet round models are that i didn't feel the 40 mm size on the wrist - it looked more 37/38mm on wrist.
i think there are white & black dial versions too.

Thank you very much, Mahesh. I love the elegance of LF watches. Just beautiful... [nt]
