The BL-Evolution "Competition" comes to life thanks to the mechanical caliber LOR-DB03 and its double hand-wound barrels, offering you 168 hours of power reserve, as a tribute to the endurance heritage of this series. Hand-assembled by Lorige craftsmen in La Chaux-de-Fonds, this movement features a dynamometric crown to improve your everyday comfort. The LOR-DB03 caliber is adorned not only with traditional Swiss techniques such as sunbrush finishes and manual chamfering but also with a “Duo-Tone” finish, giving depth and contrast to this caliber, wherever the light reflects.
From an idea born in the heart of the paddocks, Lorige has become a reality. The only question is: why didn't anyone think of that before? Indeed, what could be more authentic than wearing a genuine piece of motorsports history on the wrist?
Every Lorige case is, by its essence, truly one-of-a-kind. Machined from authentic endurance racing brake pads that have competed in the world’s most prestigious motorsports events, each of our cases carries the legacy of a unique track history in its curves. Every Lorige case is authenticated and comes with a certificate of origin retracing the pad history, from its racing roots to Lorige manufacture in Switzerland.
After 3 years of research & development, Lorige achieved a patented process of more than 30 hours to craft 2 cases from one brake pad. This patented expertise makes every Lorige case unparalleled and breaks with the conventions of traditional watchmaking by introducing an innovative material that was not originally intended for high-end watchmaking.
Top-level motorsports require precision, concentration, and experience. Coming from the world of competitive motor racing, the founders of Lorige wanted to infuse this energy into each of their watches - and what better place for watchmaking excellence than Switzerland. All the Lorige timepieces are Swiss Made, from Geneva to La-Chaux-de-Fonds.
The finishing touches shape the ultimate appearance of Lorige timepiece. The process is key to the watch’s identity but is inherently unforgiving: bead-blasting, polishing, and satin finishing are all done manually by a select group of craftsmen able to provide such rare expertise.
Made in the purest traditional watchmaking heritage, our Swiss Made manual movement is composed of 175 parts meticulously assembled by our craftsmen to form the heart of each BL-Evolution. For sublimating the LOR-DB03 caliber, our artisans have worked on a new sunbrush finish, putting the visual emphasis on the redesigned second display.
Redesigned rhodium-plated Arabic numerals with "Cool Grey" Super-Luminova® GL inserts enhance the dial’s depth and precision. The indexes, enhanced with White Super-LumiNova® GL, provide exceptional legibility while elevating the watch's refined look. Each case is engraved on its side with the identity of the original brake pads from which its Carbon/Carbon was sourced.
