Object description

Case and Dial

The watch is housed in a 44mm stainless steel case that incorporates the maker's signature pebble-like lines integrated with sharper, avant-garde angular details. This case design is paired with an integrated steel bracelet, marking a departure for the brand into the sports watch category.

The dial is finished in blue and features custom-designed hands and markers that contrast with the dial surface. The layout is clean, intended to maintain visibility while complementing the sporty aesthetic of the steel case construction.

Evidence for this section
  • “بدنه این ساعت با قطر ۴۴ میلی‌متر از جنس فولاد ضدزنگ ساخته شده و فرم آوانگارد آن زوایای مشخصی را به خطوط نرم و صیقلی شناخته‌شده این سازنده (طراحی سنگ‌ریزه‌ای یا pebble-like) افزوده است.”
  • “بند ساعت نیز از فولاد ضدزنگ و به صورت یکپارچه با قاب طراحی شده”

Movement and Escapement

The watch utilizes the proprietary LF 619.01 caliber. This movement is distinguished by its tourbillon complication, which features a double balance spring design intended to enhance chronometric performance.

The movement's accuracy has been formally validated by the Besançon observatory, which awarded the caliber a chronometer certificate.

  • “این کالیبر با ارزیابی و تایید مستقل رصدخانه بزانسون (Besançon observatory) موفق به کسب گواهی کرونومتر شده است”

Design Background

The development of the Grand Sport Tourbillon was influenced by the maker's history in motorsport, specifically commemorating success at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The design language seeks to bridge the gap between traditional horological elegance and the aesthetic requirements of motor racing.

As a limited production piece, the watch serves as a specific reference for the maker's entry into integrated-bracelet sports watches. The overall build is intended to represent a combination of technical engineering and specialized thematic design.

Evidence for this section
  • “این مدل به مناسبت گرامیداشت موفقیت و ایستادن لوران فریه بر سکوی مسابقات اتومبیل‌رانی ۲۴ ساعته لمانز (24 Hours of Le Mans) طراحی شده و جلوه‌ای از ترکیب ظرافت مهندسی ساعت‌سازی با روح ورزش‌های موتوری کلاسیک را به نمایش می‌گذارد.”
