First Edition — Lowenthal Fleurier

The Villoresi Chronograph

This timepiece highlights an exceptionally rare, hand-wound artisanal, five-beat sweep-seconds mechanical chronograph. With only 48 in existence, the movements were meticulously restored and finished by hand to meet the highest standards of contemporary Haute Horlogerie.

To pair with the age of the caliber 2518, we have developed a technique to give the watch dials an authentic 1950s patina, making each piece uniquely aged and distinctive.

The movement and watch dials are a highly refined version of the original Lowenthal watch that Enzo Ferrari gifted to Scuderia Ferrari Formula One champion Luigi “Gigi” Villoresi in 1951.

The first edition comes in four period-correct colors: Avorio Bianco, Azzuro la Plata, Palladio Verde, Oro Metallizzato. Each color, 12 time pieces.
