Favre Leuba goes back to basics, taking inspiration from the legendary Chrono Valjoux 23 from 1970. The Chief Chronograph combines a vintage aesthetic with modern details such as clean fluting, aerodynamic lugs and an ovoid silhouette. It is a collection rich in history, but designed for the present.
At the heart of the watch beats the FLC02 caliber, an automatic movement developed with La Joux-Perret, with a column wheel, 60-hour power reserve and high-end finishing, such as Côtes de Genève, blued screws and an 18-karat gold-plated rotor.
The stunning dial, crafted in over 100 production steps, combines sunburst finishing and blued details, with hands and indexes treated with Super-LumiNova for optimal visibility day or night. Featuring a column wheel movement, unlike traditional cam mechanisms, it ensures smoother and more precise operation of the chronograph pushers, offering a crisp, precise and refined tactile experience.
The Chief Chronograph is available in a uniquely designed 41 mm stainless steel case. At just 14 mm thick, the watch strikes the perfect balance between robustness and wearability, ensuring it becomes an integral part of an active lifestyle. The cushion-shaped case boasts modern appeal thanks to its contemporary proportions and faceted design.
Available in three colorways ,blue, ice blue and black, the Chief Chronograph features a sleek and functional dial, complemented by an integrated stainless steel bracelet with alternating finishes and a smooth rubber strap, both easily interchangeable. Designed to accompany you on every adventure, the sporty strap closes with a signature pin buckle, ensuring comfort and practicality on every occasion.
