....but please, Laurent, please: would you mind spending a few minutes of your spare time creating a time-only watch (at least, a non-tourbillon) that has a fighting chance of being within the reach of mere mortals? We can safely assume that your aesthetic, and your quality, will be in very high demand. Here's your first confirmed order....

Of course Laurent Ferrier showed his now famous Galet Classic, but you have all seen many pictures here on the PuristSPro that are better than mine, so I will save you the effort. But what you have not seen is the new "Tourbillon à Secret" which he showed...

is the word that comes to mind.... Funny how certain players in this field can make such a huge impact so quickly. I can see a few years in the future when his name will be known by every one of us around here.

I'm finding it innovative and beguiling. Resisting waxing poetic... This watch is showing a less pure vision of traditional Swiss watchmaking than the first watch of his that we saw... I'm enjoying seeing this man's vision.
