Laurent Ferrier LCF025 Galet Annual Calendar SS Silver Dial

The Laurent Ferrier Galet Annual Calendar in stainless steel (ref. LCF025) was introduced at SIHH 2018 as the brand’s fifth in‑house complication, marrying classical elegance with modern usability. Housed in the 40 mm Galet “School Piece” case—an homage to Laurent Ferrier’s graduation timepiece—the gently domed sapphire crystal and smooth pebble‑like case deliver exceptional tactility and refined presence. Powered by the hand‑wound caliber LF126.01, the movement features a Swiss lever escapement, 3 Hz frequency, 80‑hour power reserve, and a semi‑instantaneous annual calendar mechanism that requires adjustment only once per year on March 1. The dial, in silver with a vertically brushed center and circular brushed outer ring, presents hours and minutes centrally, a small seconds at 6 o’clock, and day and month in bevelled apertures at 12 o’clock, with the date indicated by a peripheral hand—an elegant, vintage‑inspired layout. The movement is beautifully finished, with ruthenium‑treated bridges, Côtes de Genève, polished chamfers, and a signature long blade click ratchet, visible through the sapphire case back. On an alligator strap, this model exemplifies independent watchmaking at its most discreetly sophisticated, offering collectors a rare blend of mechanical ingenuity, timeless aesthetics, and artisanal finishing.
