…how about proliferation of limited editions (including ones closely replicating previous issues), not so much movement innovation (compared to an FPJ for example), unsure succession and longevity beyond the founder, management changes, ownership questions, true level of vertical integration, etc.
Will it be FPJ or go down the path of Franck Mueller?
Love the dials, the designs and the case shapes. Used to have one too. The maison launched with great promise, but seems to have tapered off.

Anyone had seen this novelty in real life? Great idea from Laurent et Christian. ...  

Beautiful shot

No offense but I thought it was a Panerai :(

Somehow this brand is one of the best looking movements but hasn't enjoy the sudden hype/appreciation like DB lately....auction houses to be blamed.

I love the Laurent Ferrier brand and most of their models

but this LF with California dial does not work for me at all. George

Not sure how I feel about this dial...

 
 By: Mostel : July 26th, 2021-00:37
Is it LF dna? I feel with a brand like LF, one has to be verrrry careful that every move one makes... to express what the DNA of the brand is... it's such a young brand... it matters... so this dial for me... while every LF dial is beautiful and exquisite... 

Rounded square FTW!

I love that case shape, and the hands (the hands!), but I'm not a fan of the Cali dial.
