User manUal and warranty

The history of Favre-Leuba is shaped 

throughout by a pioneering spirit and a 

willingness to break new ground. By the 

unswerving pursuit of the exceptional. By 

brilliant creativity and technical excellence. 

By highly functional and reliable timepieces 

for those who conquer frontiers, whether in 

altitude or depth, in heat or freezing cold, 

north or south of the equator.

Still today, our watches are intended for 

those who are not held back by seemingly 

fixed  limits  and  who  will  not  be  deterred 

from achieving their goals. We are therefore 

delighted that you too have opted for a 

model from Favre-Leuba! Your watch has 

been made to the highest quality standards 

and  with  the  best  materials  by  qualified 

watchmakers. In order to ensure that you 

will be able to enjoy your Favre-Leuba watch 

for a long time to come, we ask that you 

take note of the information and instructions 

contained in this user and warranty manual. 

We hope you will enjoy many unforgettable 

hours, minutes and seconds with your 

 

 

Favre-Leuba watch.
