Laurent Ferrier is now presenting a second model with the same case, the Galet Micro-Rotor Montre Ecole Regulateur. As typical in a regulator watch, the three indicators are displayed separately: the large, centrally-positioned hand for the minutes, the sub-dial at 12 o’clock for the hours and below, at 6 o’clock, for the seconds. The Laurent Ferrier Galet Micro-Rotor Montre Ecole Regulateur will be available from July with a price of Euro 34,900 in stainless steel or Euro 44,300 in white gold.
Last January, on occasion of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie held in Geneva, Laurent Ferrier presented the Galet Micro Rotor "Montre Ecole", a new model inspired to the first timepiece created by the master watchmaker in his school years, a pocket watch characterised by lines and finish typical of the 19th century tradition.
Laurent Ferrier is now presenting a second model with the same case, the Galet Micro-Rotor Montre Ecole Regulateur. As typical in a regulator watch, the three indicators are displayed separately: the large, centrally-positioned hand for the minutes, the sub-dial at 12 o’clock for the hours and below, at 6 o’clock, for the seconds.
The watch is powered by the FBN Calibre 228.01, an automatic manufacture movement equipped with micro-rotor winding system fixed between the main plate and the micro-rotor bridge, a silicon escapement with double direct impulse on the balance, and a silent block shock protection system for the micro-rotor. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback and beautifully finished, the movement beats at a frequency of 3 Hz (21,600 vph) with a power reserve of 72 hours.
Available in stainless steel case or in white gold, the 40 mm three-piece case is water resistant to 30 metres / 100 feet.
The silver toned dial has a vertical satin-brushed finish with the minute and seconds counters recessed and contracted with a nickel snailed finish.
The small hours dial bears Roman numerals in black, while the minutes are shown on a "railway track" ring in slate grey with blue painted Arabic numerals at 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes.
The hands for the three functions include a "leaf-shaped" hand for the hours, an "assegai-shaped" (from the spear used by the Zulu) hand for the minutes and a baton-shaped hand for the seconds. All three hands are in white gold 18K/210Pd with a black ruthenium treatment.
The Laurent Ferrier Galet Micro-Rotor Montre Ecole Regulateur will be available from July with a price of Euro 34,900 in stainless steel or Euro 44,300 in white gold. laurentferrier.ch
