I did a tour of LF in Geneva many years ago. The CEO at the time personally did the tour for us. She was very generous with her time and showed us the facility, introduced us to the watchmakers, and of course got to see the timepieces.

The entire company at the time was literally a house. Four watchmakers in all. At the time, they were producing only 400 watches per year. I don't know what they produce today. It was very obvious that quality and finishing was top priority. I dug up some old pictures from the visit.

Wow, very cool, thanks.
