Favre Leuba Chief Date 00.20102.102.01.200

The Chief Date features a versatile 40mm steel case with a unique design. Slender with just 10.81mm thickness, the timepiece strikes a perfect balance between robustness and wearability, ensuring it becomes an integral part of one's everyday look. Inspired by the glorious history, this cushion-shaped case boasts a modern appeal because of its contemporary proportions and multifaceted design.

It features brilliantly executed circular and vertical brushing on the sides that add a beautiful contrast and highlight the contours of the case. It exudes an understated allure creating a subtle play of light, giving the watch a refined character. It is topped by a curved sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. The sapphire crystal caseback offers a view of the beautifully decorated caliber and a water resistance of 100M.

The entire expanse of the stunning dial is enlivened by a meticulously carved monogram pattern drenched in a classic black shade, exuding a subtle contemporary appeal. It comes equipped with a contrasting date aperture at the three o’clock marker. A 3D monogram set inside the dial and hands & applied indices with brushing and sandblasting add depth to the watch face.

The two-link integrated steel bracelet features a mix of finishes, alternating between vertical brushing and polished center links. It unites seamlessly with the case, creating a graceful presence on the wrist. It comes with an easy-change mechanism for effortless switching between bracelet and strap, and is secured with a butterfly clasp.

Designed and manufactured with high Swiss craftsmanship, FLD03 is a self-winding caliber. A testament to unrivaled accuracy and reliability, the movement is equipped with a date complication. It features a power reserve of 68 hours and delivers exceptional precision, beating at a 4Hz frequency.

The watch offers a clear view of the immaculately decorated caliber through the sapphire crystal caseback. It carries superlative finishing on all the elements, meticulously executed with refined details, such as Côtes de Genève on the main plate, Soleillage finishing on the rotor, heat-treated blued screws, and more.

The 4N PVD rotor is skeletonized and custom-designed with Colimaçon & Soleillage finishes. The Favre Leuba monogram is engraved as a medallion. Skeletonization of the rotor is an extremely precise task with more implications than just aesthetics.

The multi-finished and rhodium-plated hands and applied indexes are equipped with a generous application of high-performance Super-Luminova X1 in blue. It offers a highly effective glow in the dark and lasts for longer durations.
