Independent watchmaker brand Laurent Ferrier truly captures the essence of purists and modern high-end watchmaking. The Galet Micro-Rotor was unveiled in 2011, like its name “Galet” meaning pebble in French, its sinuous contour and smoothly turned lugs resembles a river stone.
Traditional timekeeping in its simplest form, the Galet Micro-Rotor features the brand’s signature assegai-shaped (African spear like) hands stretching across the blue dial. Sitting underneath the dial house the incredibly high quality self-winding calibre FBN 229.01. Taking inspiration from the natural escapement invented by Abraham-Louis Breguet, the movement is a double direct-impulse escapement, which improves the efficiency of the movement through its ability to use less power and maintain amplitude. One can admire the incredible handcraft precision from its sapphire case back. Contrasting finishes of perlage and Geneva stripes and an 18K solid gold fan-shaped micro-rotor, the movement is tastefully refined to the utmost degree.
It’s chronometer-certified and offers an impressive power reserve of 72 hours. A combination of tradition and innovation and further delivered with its original accessories, this is an attractive timepiece for the discerning collector.
