Overview
An embodiment of precision, sophistication, and a nod to the spirit of adventure
The legacy of the Sea Sky from the 1960s is now presented in an all-new steel mesh bracelet. The introduction of Sea Sky brought a unique watch style that combined the functionality of a diver’s watch with that of a chronograph during a time when the functionality and design of Favre Leuba watches were making a lasting impact on the watch industry. The new Sea Sky collection celebrates this legacy of innovation with designs that embody precision, sophistication, and a strong sense of adventure, now wrapped around your wrist with an elegant and comfortable mesh bracelet.
Case
Retro Inspired
Conceived for adventure, the Sea Sky Revival exudes bold character with its rugged, round case crafted from stainless steel. It features a proportionate 40mm size, offering elevated comfort and a seamless wrist presence for constant outdoor use.
The case delivers practicality with a rotating ceramic bezel featuring ergonomic knurling and distinctive countdown markers for precise timekeeping. A double-domed sapphire crystal glass with an anti-reflective coating on both sides strengthens the watch’s vintage appeal while ensuring optimum legibility.
Dial
Vintage Aesthetics
The classic dial of the Sea Sky Revival carries pleasing vintage aesthetics with a sunray finish, complemented by retro-inspired index hour markers and faceted hands. It features a clean tri-compax chronograph configuration, with contrasting sub-dials that stand out against the blue backdrop for enhanced legibility. The sub-dials track minutes at two o’clock, hours at six, and running seconds at nine.
Surrounding the perimeter of the dial are a tachymeter and a telemeter scale, while a minute track sits resolutely on the internal rehaut, allowing for a well-defined and intuitive reading experience. The tachymeter scale helps calculate the speed of a moving object, while the telemeter scale helps calculate the distance from the source of the sound. The Favre Leuba monogram punctuates the dial with a signature finish.
Bracelet
Elegant Mesh Bracelet
Crafted from finely woven stainless steel, the mesh bracelet is as refined in feel as it is in appearance. Its fluid construction wraps naturally around the wrist, creating a wearing experience that is both comfortable and remarkably effortless. Secures around the wrist with a folding clasp.
Movement
Superior Driving Force
Designed and manufactured with high Swiss craftsmanship, FLC01 is a self-winding chronograph caliber. A testament to unrivaled accuracy and reliability, the movement is equipped with a column-wheel mechanism and a tri-compax configuration. It features a power reserve of 60 hours and delivers exceptional precision, beating at a 4Hz frequency.
Decorated Caliber
Meticulous Finishes
The watch offers a clear view of the immaculately decorated caliber through the sapphire crystal caseback. It carries superlative finishing on all the elements, meticulously executed with refined details, such as perlage 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 Skeletonized Design
The 4N rotor is skeletonized and custom-designed with Colimaçon & Soleillage finishes. The Favre Leuba monogram is engraved as a medallion along with the text 'Swiss made since 1737'. Skeletonization of the rotor is an extremely precise task with more implications than just aesthetics. The weight and other characteristics of the rotor boast surgical precision to ensure winding efficiency.
Chronograph
Column Wheel Supremacy
The movement features a blued column-wheel mechanism to govern the chronograph function, instead of the more common cam-actuated 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 color. Even the slightest imperfection can result in an uneven blue finish. In that case, the watchmaker has to repolish and clean the part to start afresh.
Lume
Visibility Under All Conditions
The hands and indexes are equipped with a generous application of a Super-Luminova, which offers a highly effective glow in the dark.
