Watch LMM-01: Nationale (Mechanical)

We envisioned the Nationale, as the kind of watch the chief of staff for the French Defence Minister in the 1960s would have worn.

This watch is elegant & very accurate, thanks to its highly detailed minutes track. The design is minimalistic, but boasts a strong personality. And its sector dial is clear evidence of its scientific inspiration. The LMM-01 Nationale is SWISS MADE.
