Square Micro‑Rotor
Retro Silvery White [Archive]
LCF013.AC.G3N
These original interpretations of the Square Micro‑Rotor embody a return to Art Deco codes with their 1930s aesthetic characteristic. Unmistakably modern, this artistic style is based on a certain geometric rigour, minimalism and graphic stylisation. LAURENT FERRIER is exploring Arabic numerals for this design. Finely transfered here with an Art Deco touch, the Arabic numerals are combined with a modern, architectural hour circle.

CARE
CALIBRE FBN229.01
This automatic calibre features a natural escapement. It offers two exclusive characteristics: a micro-rotor pawl-fitted automatic winding system, assisted by an exclusive silicon double-direct impulse escapement fitted directly on the balance, inspired by the father of modern horology, Abraham-Louis Breguet. This modern construction, associated with the use of cutting-edge materials,
maximises the restitution of energy.
The exceptional finishes of the movement are crafted in the finest watchmaking traditions. In addition to a Côtes de Genève pattern on the bridges and the circular graining on the mainplate, the flanks are hand-drawn, the wheel spokes are bevelled, the screw heads are polished, and the interior angles of the balance-cock are hand crafted with a burin. The micro-rotor bridge is hand polished.
