An embodiment of precision, sophistication, and a nod to the spirit of adventure

Favre Leuba has been making high-precision chronograph watches since 1925, when we released our first monopusher chronograph. In the 1930s, we introduced the two-pusher mechanism, and in the early 1940s, we developed hand-wound chronographs with a symmetrical bicompax display. However, it wasn’t until the 1960s that the original Sea Sky was created, a time when the functionality and design of Favre Leuba watches were making a lasting impact on the watch industry. The introduction of Sea Sky brought a unique watch style that combined the functionality of a diver’s watch with that of a chronograph. The new Sea Sky collection celebrates this legacy of innovation with designs that embody precision, sophistication, and a strong sense of adventure.

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.

Vintage Aesthetics

The classic dial of the Sea Sky Revival carries pleasing vintage aesthetics with 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 black 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.

Easy Interchangeable Strap

A smooth and complementary leather strap secures the Sea Sky Revival with impressive ease and fluidity. It features clean, perceptible stitching and a pin buckle adorned with the brand's monogram. Additionally, the watch’s easy interchangeable strap system allows for effortless swapping between different options.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Visibility Under All Conditions

The hands and indexes are equipped with a generous application of a radium-like lume which offers a pleasing vintage look to the watch along with a highly effective glow in the dark.
