Asking for advice on the Laurent Ferrier Classic Origin for Revolution
Dear All, I am thinking of getting my first LF/ independent haute horlogerie as this year's Christmas present for myself. The sector dial, grey tone, stainless steel case, tailor made luminous hands, manual winding and 80hrs power reserve all sing to me. ...
I hesitate like you on this.
Honestly I think there are better off the peg choices within the brand. Of course the LE nature of this may appeal - but LF are always doing specials..... Contact them and ask them to make you something - you may be pleasantly surprised. 😉 R
I love this finish!
Frosted finish is at least as difficult - if not more - to apply than the usual cote de geneve / perlage. I also love the dial, I just bought the Octo Revolution but had I not I would seriously consider this LF... One thing you might want to consider: whi...
Love the dial. Personally I think the bracet takes away from the elegance of the watch somewhat though.
Although I do like that bracelet on other watches.
I bought the Classic Green in titanium
And the best priced watch of the entire LF current lineup normally has to come along with some shortages, somewhere. This time it is in the finishings. Honestly, I like the cooler and contemporary look of the frosted movement more. I have many watches wit...
Hey my friend I did not know you got that one, it is superb
Congrats to you my friend, enjoy it and wear it in the best of health Mike
Will get ii in a couple of days!
Thanks, Mike! I’ll post pictures the minute I get it. Best, Radu
I really prefer the ADM edition presented
Few weeks ago on purist, the dial works better, it is the micro rotor and bigger small second, but a better sector dial design in my opinion...
LF
I like sector dials, but i find this particular LF sector dial somewhat flat (at least in this picture), especially in contrast to the high-character hands. And I agree that this manual wind movement isn't nearly as nice as the LF micro rotor movement. Th...
I'd go with a used example of the Galet Micro Rotor instead
The movement of this Rake/Revo is regrettably austere, and LF made no bones about the Origin being a decontented entry-level model when it arrived earlier this year. There are steel-cased Galet Micro Rotors available used for money similar to what Revolut...
Something about the simplicity of the movement with gold frosted finish and lovely anglage that really speaks to me.
I wonder if LF would entertain a proposal for a custom dial from metalem (guilloché, of course) and a palladium white gold case and bracelet?
Dear Henry, Laurent Ferrier has an authorized dealer in HK
In King Fook; it has a multi brand boutique that carries LF at Central Building, on Queen's Road, of Hong Kong Island. I suppose the dealer would be happy to mail the watch back to Switzerland for all service. If not, can let me know by pm and I will be h...
