The Lauren Ferrier Galet Montre Ecole Regulateur LCF026.AC.GN1.1 is a traditional regulator or "mother clock" as invented during the eighteenth century by Ferdinand Berthoud and son. The separation of hours, minutes, and seconds allows for easy reading and an element of watchmaking history to co-exist on the same dial. The case is derived from the form of Laurent Ferrier's personal "school watch," the first watch he ever created. Inside the stainless steel case, Laurent Ferrier's micro rotor automatic caliber FB228.01 features a three day power reserve and a double direct-impulse escapement with nickel phosphorous escape wheel and a silicon oscillating lock for the twin escape wheels. The Lauren Ferrier Galet Montre Ecole Regulateur LCF026.AC.GN1.1 is encased in stainless steel surrounding a satin finished silver dial on a brown alligator leather strap. Functions include hours, minutes, and sub-seconds. The watch measures 40mm in diameter, 11.3mm in thickness, and 47mm from lug-to-lug.

 
An interesting Regulator, for those into this style of time piece. Thanks Mike.:cheers:
