Specialist note

The present Galet Micro-Rotor model is preserved in like new overall condition.

The first model that Laurent Ferrier produced when he established his own brand was the Galet Classic Micro-Rotor, containing a number of significant features: a micro-rotor automatic winding system fixed between the main plate and the micro-rotor bridge, a silicon escapement with double direct impulse on the balance and a silent block shock protection system for the microrotor. The double direct-impulse escapement is inspired by the “natural” escapement or “échappement naturel” invented by Abraham-Louis Breguet.

The Galet Classic Micro-Rotor was officially presented at Baselworld in 2010 and was met with instant praise.
