Case

Streamlined Proportions

The Chief Chronograph features a 41mm steel case with a unique design. At only 14mm thickness, the timepiece strikes a perfect balance between robustness and wearability, ensuring it becomes an integral part of one's active lifestyle. Inspired by the glorious history, this cushion-shaped case boasts a modern appeal because of its contemporary proportions and the multifaceted design.

It features multiple, brilliantly executed finishes such as vertical brushing, polished sides and pushers that add a stunning contrast and highlight the contours of the case. It exudes an understated allure creating a subtle play of light, giving the watch a refined and versatile character. It is topped by a sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. The sapphire crystal case-back offers a view of the beautifully decorated calibre and a water resistance of 100M.

Dial

Pleasing Dial Aesthetics

This stunning ice blue dial of the Chief Chronograph goes through over 100 steps in production. It boasts a combination of sunray circular brushed finish on the base and circular brushing on the tonal sub-dials. It is also equipped with a tachymeter scale on the internal rehaut to measure speed, a signature of sports chronograph timepieces. A 3D monogram set inside the dial and multi-faceted hands and applied Indices with brushing and sandblasting add depth to the watch face. The bi-compax sub-dials offer at-a-glance readability of elapsed minutes and seconds.

Bracelet

Seamlessly Integrated Yet Interchangeable

The two-link integrated steel bracelet features a combination of finishes, alternating between vertical brushing and polished centre links. It unites seamlessly with the case which gives it a graceful presence on the wrist. The bracelet is equipped with an easy change mechanism and secures with a butterfly clasp.

Movement

Superior Driving Force

Designed and manufactured with Swiss craftsmanship, FLC02 is a self-winding column-wheel chronograph calibre. A testament to unrivalled accuracy and reliability, the movement is equipped with a column wheel chronograph. It features a power reserve of 60 hours and delivers exceptional precision, beating at a 4Hz frequency.

Decorated Calibre

Meticulously Finished

The watch offers a clear view of the immaculately decorated calibre through the sapphire crystal case back. It carries superlative finishing on all the elements, meticulously executed with refined detail, such as Pearlage on the lower bridges, Côtes de Genève on the main plate, Soleillage on the rotor, heat-treated blued screws, column wheel and more.

Rotor

Custom Skeletonised Design

The 4N rotor is skeletonised and custom-designed with Colimmaçon & Soleillage finishes. The Favre Leuba monogram is engraved as a medallion along with the text ‘Swiss made since 1737’. Skeletonisation of the rotor is an extremely precise task with more implications than just aesthetics.

Chronograph

Column Wheel Supremacy

The movement features a column wheel mechanism to govern the chronograph function, instead of the more common cam-activated chronograph. A column wheel chronograph mechanism is considered to be superior, more precise and a lot more difficult to manufacture.

Blueing is a result of a very precise heat treatment process which is used to increase the hardness. This process also results in the part turning to a stunning blue colour. Even the slightest imperfection can result in an imperfect and uneven blue finish. In that case, the watchmaker has to repolish and clean the part in order to start afresh.

Lume

Visibility Under All Conditions

The multi-faceted hands and rhodium-plated applied indexes are equipped with a generous application of high-performance SuperLuminova X1. It offers a highly effective glow in the dark that lasts for a longer duration.
