Laurent Ferrier Classic Origin Titanium Opaline dial. Two pictures.

 
 By: amanico : August 3rd, 2020-01:55
I must say that I am very intrigued by this novelty from Laurent Ferrier. I like a lot the idea of a titanium case and this glossy white dial with these red touches here and there. Now I have to see the movement finishings in the real. That will be done i...  

My first feelings! [nt]

Absolutely. [nt]

The layout and colors seem to match, I shall

Reserve full judgement till I see the backside.

Here it is.

Thank you for this Sire, I guess I am more

Drawn to movements that look like little cities, with a more 3-D effect, like the Datograph.

Very nice and elegant watch.

I like the red highlights which give more interest to the dial and the rail track minutes. Iโ€™m not keen on the strap on this watch. For me, a black alligator would have been more attractive. Regards Kev.

I think it looks really good

especially when the case is not high polished titanium. On the other hand, I have a feeling that there are too many models, in the LF Collection, that offer the same. George

I'm probably the outlier here

 
 By: dnlmpg : August 3rd, 2020-03:36
But I think it's too busy. Personally LF is about simplicity elegance. I mean, just look at it. This, to me, is where it's most difficult to achieve - saying so much with so little. ...  

Yes I guess

And the larger rails at the outskirts of the indices. Different strokes for different folks I guess. One can wear this new one with jeans I guess and still look good.

I think that if ever ...

 
 By: Cpt Scarlet : August 3rd, 2020-03:39
I had a two watch collection (LOL) It could be the perfect second watch. On a separate point I think that LF are starting to dilute the impact of the brand by trying to cover to many bases. If they continue with this strategy it will also damage values an... 

I'm afraid that damage is already being done.

 
 By: blau : August 3rd, 2020-03:52
But I still think this is a beautiful watch!

Yes...

 
 By: Cpt Scarlet : August 3rd, 2020-04:31
Itโ€™s very unfortunate. Big isnโ€™t always better in business, but unfortunately not everyone understands this.

Food for thought. [nt]

Me too! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : August 3rd, 2020-07:40

Truly a classic

 
 By: analog_sheen : August 3rd, 2020-06:30
I was immediately captivated by this watch when I saw the first pictures of it in early July. I have long appreciated the most simple LF designs, especially the Classic collection. This dial adds just enough color and visual elements (cross hair and small... 

A good looking LF! And I'm glad the price is more reasonable.

 
 By: jleno : August 3rd, 2020-07:59
When you get the chance to see it, I'd be curious about the finishing in other areas besides the anglage. Are the gear spokes beveled? Are the teeth on the ratchet wheel polished? What components are black polished? How's the finishing on the balance whee... 

very very appealing!

 
 By: Watcholic_id : August 3rd, 2020-08:13
to be honest, this is the first time an LF draw my attention cheers

Love the LF cases...

 
 By: mdg : August 3rd, 2020-08:39
...just wish they'd tone down the crown a little bit. Either make it smaller or less 'oniony.'

It certainly is...I'm just not a fan and it is a deal-breaker for me...

 
 By: mdg : August 3rd, 2020-12:28
...otherwise I really like the offerings.

Very nice, however

 
 By: Thomas_3 : August 3rd, 2020-10:37
personally I would prefer stainless steel.

Great Minimalist design

 
 By: Mostel : August 3rd, 2020-19:26
But it does not live up to its price, IMHO... And... resale also tragically disappoints... Sorry this matters a lot! This watch should be a 19-25K msrp watch. My O!!

Yes of course

 
 By: Mostel : August 6th, 2020-18:55
But certain watches... like Ferrier... I guess because it is Independent and carries so much prestige relatively... ? Somehow I would expect more. I would expect virtually all brands to suffer greatly except for very few... but sometimes I point this out ... 

Yes Nico but we always think we are buying what we really like

 
 By: Mostel : August 9th, 2020-17:27
It only hits us by surprise a few weeks or months later and alas...

Love the red accents...

 
 By: seehoo : August 7th, 2020-15:37
A bit different from past LF models but still very interesting. The finish and decoration of the movement is not as good as before though. But as youโ€™ve mentioned,best to see it in person.

Fully agreed with you my friend...

 
 By: Mike H : August 12th, 2020-17:21
Nice iteration to be seen in the flesh... very interesting (and nice) details in photo, I am also eager to see it in the metal
