In 2015, Chopard launched a new brand, named after one of the most important people in the evolution of precision watchmaking – Ferdinand Bertud.
Today, this brand Ferdinand Berthoud adds another watch to its impressive collection – Chronomètre Ferdinand Berthoud FB 1R.6-1.
This watch can easily be considered a true wark for true connoisseurs by combining the turbillon / fuse-chain mechanism with the original display of controller type and an ultra-sturdy stainless steel case.

Based on the previous versions of Chronomètre FB 1, the new Chronomètre Ferdinand Berthoud FB 1R.6-1 is homage to its manufacturers, with several complications inspired by scientific instruments and marine chronometers to improve precision.
But this watch is also powerful visually with its stunningly visible turbine on a minimalist dial.

The dial is made of nickel-plated silver with a rhodium black coating and has a unique type of regulator where all the indications are divided in order to achieve the best possible view.
New Chronomètre Ferdinand Berthoud FB 1R.6-1 also has an innovative 44 mm diameter housing with the same design as FB 1 and an octagonal shape.
