A timepiece that lets its craftsmanship do the talking, the Classic Origin has been one of Laurent Ferrier's most thoughtfully designed timepieces since its debut, and this Hodinkee collaboration variant only builds upon that framework with its understated yet unique dial, inspired by classic design of the 1940s and 1950s.
