Ferdinand Berthoud / Chronomètre FB 2RE

Ferdinand Berthoud Chronomètre FB 2RE

Collection profile · 2020

Chronomètre FB 2RE is Ferdinand Berthoud's second modern collection, moving the maison into a round case with central hours, minutes and deadbeat seconds while retaining fusee-and-chain constant force with a one-second remontoir d'egalite.

Why it matters

FB 2RE is pivotal because it proves Ferdinand Berthoud's chronometric identity can survive outside the original octagonal FB 1 case, translating the house vocabulary into a round, enamel-dial watch with a different constant-force architecture.
