Introducing the Laurent Ferrier Sport Auto 79—a masterful blend of horological artistry and racing heritage. Crafted entirely in 5N red gold, this 41.5 mm timepiece commemorates the brand's 15th anniversary and pays homage to the founders' remarkable third-place finish at the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The opaline cream dial, achieved through a galvanic treatment, exudes a subtle rose-silver hue, reflecting the understated elegance synonymous with Laurent Ferrier. Accentuated by 5N red gold indexes and Assegai-shaped hands filled with white Super-LumiNova®, the dial ensures optimal legibility. A snailed small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock and a beveled date aperture at 3 o'clock add functional sophistication.
The integrated bracelet and case showcase a harmonious interplay of satin-brushed and mirror-polished finishes, inspired by the aerodynamic curves of vintage racing cars. This design not only enhances visual appeal but also pays tribute to the brand's motorsport legacy.
Powered by an in-house automatic movement, the Sport Auto 79 embodies Laurent Ferrier's commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design. This timepiece is a testament to a pivotal moment in the brand's history, making it a coveted piece for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
