LAURENT FERRIER X URWERK LFUR

The story started behind the watchmakin­g scenes. It was in November 2015 at a watchmakin­g exhibition like many others, thousands of kilometres away from Geneva. There, two watchmaker­s, exiled from the cocoons of their respective workshops, made a tentative effort to escape the crowds and take a break. Slightly bewildered by friendly bustle, they sought refuge under a staircase. They hardly knew each other, though their paths had crossed, but destiny seemed to have brought them together. Thus did Laurent Ferrier and Felix Baumgartne­r meet.
