I love this piece - casual and modern!
Many of Laurent Ferrier appear as pure dress watches which is lovely, but not for everyone. The sector dial on the Origine is casual/sporty and the finishing on the movement is very contemporary-looking, which sets it apart from other offerings of the maker in a couple of ways.
Not to bury the lead, but I have incoming the hunter green dial Origin (limited to 30 pieces)! I loved it when I first saw it, but didn’t have the cojones to buy it from the AD at that time. Now I was looking to add a green dial to the collection and when it came up at the Phillips Hong Kong auction, I bid on it and won! I don’t mind that it is second-hand, although I am probably spending 50% more to get it. (I believe that with the artist watchmaker still participating with his own brand, these pieces will increase in value much as F.P. Journe has in recent years.) But, pricing is secondary as these watches are finished at the highest level and will always be extraordinarily special.
Wear yours in hood health — it seems like you are already doing that!

Some may have seen my post in wrist scan, just added this watch last week. I am very happy to have a LF as it is a brand I always loved and appreciated since the first tourbillon model he started his company with. I had been looking for a VC tradionelle i...
Thanks!
There is some discordance with the strap and watch. I like that it is more casual and the suede nature. But I have been looking at their straps and think maybe the chocolate leather one may work better?
Congrats. Really nice LF.
I too would probably change the strap, but it’s fine with the OEM strap. Cheers, John
Thanks john!
Yes strap is something I am considering. Will wear this one out a little first.
Congrats!
The clean layout of the dial and the movement convey a nice sense of calmness! Enjoy! 👍
Now that's an idea!
Yes, as someone who knows very little about movements, but I have seen pictures of many... the first thing I thought when I saw it, was I love how simple it looks. Well decorated. The movement is black rhodium plated and changes from golden to black in li...
Perhaps
I was looking at the LF for revolution and think those numerals are Sublime. Alas, in this case I was thinking I've never seen numerals in tantalum making them a novelty.
Tantalum and blue
They look nice together... but then it would be very similar to another tantalum and blue watch.. Maybe more of a clean slate look, tantalum case with brushed grey dial as this example shows. (Picture from a ) ...
Congrats.
No question that this, and many LF, are just very pleasing to the eye. I like the strap a lot, super casual. And these LF, depending on the dial, can usually go very casual which is also a big appeal.
Lovely
While clearly in the dress watch category, I think the red accents give the watch a hint of sportiness that makes it more versatile. Very nice.
Gorgeous
Love this piece and am awaiting mine on order. Will not be until mid next year however. Please post with thoughts on how you are finding it after some living together!
This one you will keep forever my friend. Sadly mine is on its way back to the A.D. Want to make sure the rattle I hear is nothing to be concerned about
After 40 years of using a stethoscope, there’s not much I don’t hear ...
Better safe than sorry ...
Definitely a keeper. Throwing it on today to take my daughter to the nutcracker.
Fantastic watch!
Congratulations for catching this very classy piece. I find it utterly delicious. The Galet case is simply superb, and I love the simplicity of the backside. Enjoy! Daniel

Nice catch!
The green dial looks very cool (in pictures). You will not regret. I was wearing mine this weekend and the combination of Ti and that case shape make for a very pleasant wearing watch. The watch is fantastic. Can't wait to see yours.
Good point...
I got caught up looking at the hands. The smooth shape and how they extend to the periphery is a nice touch 👌
