Favre Leuba Harpoon Revival Series Adds New Colors
The Favre Leuba Harpoon Revival series, originally launched with a grey dial, now expands with two new colour options—black and dark blue—maintaining the classic 1960s design and compact proportions of its 1966 predecessor. Measuring 36.8 mm in diameter with a 10 mm thickness, the watch features a domed sapphire crystal, stainless‑steel caseback, and a modest 50 m water resistance, while the dial’s sun‑brushed finish and white minute track give each version a refined, tuxedo‑like appearance. Powered by the in‑house FLD034 calibre, an automatic La Joux‑Perret G100 movement operating at 4 Hz, the Harpoon Revival offers a 68‑hour power reserve and a frequency of 28,800 vph. It is paired with a leather strap—black for the black dial and brown for the blue—secured by a stainless‑steel pin buckle, and both editions are priced at CHF 1,800, matching the original grey model.
Buying Time Analysis: The story highlights the revival of Favre Leuba’s iconic Harpoon watch, showcasing the brand’s successful blend of heritage design with modern craftsmanship, and its strategic expansion into new colour options that reinforce its market relevance and appeal to collectors.
