Introducing the Laurent Ferrier Classic & Square Micro-Rotor Evergreen

It’s clear that Laurent Ferrier understands the appeal of its case design and now matches it with a refreshing and natural green dial. The case shape and green dial go hand in hand in terms of an earthy, relaxed look and feel, which is channelled thanks in part to the high execution — the case is nicely polished while the dial has subtle vertical brushing, adding to the appeal.

It’s not just about looks. Both the Classic and Square watches are powered by the brand’a signature micro-rotor movement. Designed by LA Fabrique du Temps, the FBN 229.01 manages to balance classic and innovative elements. It has a nice, classical layout with exquisite finishing, yet boasts new details like the novel construction with a bridge to showcase the micro-rotor, as well as the intriguing natural escapement with silicon pallet fork. The natural escapement is uncommon in watchmaking, and this iteration is particularly unusual because the escape wheel features vertical teeth, which resemble Breguet’s original design from the late 18th century.
