Tetradecagon

The inner bezel isn’t just round. Instead, it’s a finely wrought tetradecagon. It might be a small detail, but it contributes a lot to the technical character of the Favre-Leuba watches.

Case design

Whether round or in an unmistakable pillow shape – the cases are characterized by clean lines. Like their famous role models from the 1960s and 1970s. Not overdesigned, but expressive. A bow is drawn from lug to lug on the side of the case, like a bridge.

Hands

They are very distinctive. With excellent readability in any situation. Even in the dark. Just what you’d expect from a Favre-Leuba watch.

Index marks

The index marks also aren’t at all conservative. They set the tone for the dial, which is otherwise minimalist in design. Making a clear statement. They are generously sized. Rectangular. Elaborately appliquéd. Simultaneously a distinguishing feature and a functional element. 

FAVRE LEUBA IS SECOND OLDEST SWISS WATCH MANUFACTURER...SINCE 1737

 NEW FAVRE-LEUBA RAIDER HARPOON

The first thing to catch your eye with the Harpoon is, of course, its quirky 1960s-inspired design with bold colors and round dial, housed in a retro-futuristic barrel shape case. It won’t be to everyone’s taste. Personally, I must confess a weakness for this type of design. Each to their own! Its unconventional display is nonetheless intriguing, if at first a bit puzzling. There is only a single hand, which simultaneously indicates the minutes and hours, the latter of which are displayed on a rotating disc framing the dial. A small, central indicator allows you to see that your watch is running (which is key for a dive watch, to meet with ISO 6425). It’s difficult to explain, so just watch the following video by searching on YouTube, which makes things clear.
