Classic Tourbillon
Clous de Paris
LCF001.R5.D2GR
The Classic Tourbillon has decisively proven its worth since being presented in 2009, earning enviable distinctions such as in the 2010 Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix. Inspired by expertise now over 200 years old, this timepiece incorporates an avant-garde technique that ensures exceptional precision. It is equipped with a tourbillon device conceived by Abraham-Louis Breguet in 1801, complemented by two head-to-tail mounted balance-springs in the centre of the balance.
It features a subtly decorated dial in silvery palladium. The centre is delicately hand-guilloché with a “Clous de Paris” hobnail motif, framed on the outer rim by a circular satin-brushed décor.

CARE
Calibre LF619.01
The Tourbillon collection is driven by the exclusive in-house movement developed, assembled and adjusted by Laurent Ferrier and which forged his reputation as an exceptional watchmaker. This calibre features a tourbillon device based on the principle introduced by Abraham-Louis Breguet in 1801, and complemented for the first time by a double hairspring. The major advantage of this construction is its ability to keep the balance centred on its axis, while compensating for the effects of gravity and thereby guaranteeing the extreme reliability of the rating system.
