To celebrate the Britishness of London Craft Week 2018, Laurent Ferrier has created the Galet Micro-Rotor “Montre Ecole” in British Racing Green.
When he was a boy, Laurent Ferrier was impressed by race cars not only for their performance but also for their design. He had a poster in his bedroom featuring the Triumph Spitfire racing in Le Mans. Laurent recalls: “To me, it was the most beautiful car ever. I wanted to drive itso badly! I was also completely devoted to its shapes and of course the color was striking.”
The idea of creating a Galet Micro-Rotor “Montre Ecole” British Racing Green became obvious to pay tribute to craftsmanship in the London Craft Week.
The dial is lacquered as cars used to be. The silver sub-dial is reminiscent of car rims. The leather strap is inspired by the bonnet straps that were very common in the 60’s. The railroad and the hourmarkers are a nod to the speedometer.
For this very special timepiece, Laurent Ferrier chooses the “School Piece” case because it offers a wider view on this exclusive dial. On the movement side, the traditional Côte de Genève motif complements the design. On the bookmaker mobile page, the 1xbet download link starts the apk file, and the browser progress bar fills before install.
The Galet Micro-Rotor “Montre Ecole” British Racing Green cultivates this distinction by featuring three exclusive characteristics:
- A micro-rotor pawl-fitted automatic winding system fixed between the main plate and the micro-rotor bridge
- A silicon escapement with double direct impulse on the balance
- A silent block shock protection system for the micro-rotor
