Favre Leuba has expanded its Deep Raider line with a more instrument-style take on the modern diver, adding a power reserve display, small seconds, and a vertical triple-figure date to the collection.
The new Deep Raider Power Reserve follows the recent return of the brand’s vintage-leaning dive watch design language, but gives the dial a busier and more technical personality.
A 40mm steel diver with serious water resistance
The watch is housed in a 40mm stainless steel case measuring 12.59mm thick, with tapered lugs and a mix of brushed and polished finishing.
It keeps the integrated profile of the Deep Raider family and pairs it with a ceramic unidirectional bezel, a luminous pip at 12 o’clock, a screw-in crown, and 300 metres of water resistance.
That specification keeps the watch firmly in dive-watch territory, even though the dial layout moves it closer to a multi-display daily sports watch.
Power reserve, small seconds, and a vertical date
The dial is the main departure from the time-and-date Deep Raider models, with small seconds at 9 o’clock, a power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock, and a vertical triple-figure date window at 3 o’clock.
Metallic frames outline the displays, while the sub-dials use concentric textures to stand apart from the sunray-finished main dial.
Favre Leuba is offering five dial colours at launch, with white, black, green, blue, and ice blue options available.
Applied rhodium-plated indexes and polished rhodium-plated hands are treated with Super-LumiNova C1 X1, giving the watch a blue glow in low light.
The FLP01 calibre inside
The Deep Raider Power Reserve runs on the Favre Leuba FLP01 automatic calibre, which is built on the Sellita SW279-1 architecture.
It operates at 4Hz, uses 26 jewels, and offers a 41-hour power reserve, with the remaining running time shown directly on the dial.
A closed caseback carries Favre Leuba’s emblem within a wave-style engraving, along with the brand’s “Conquering Frontiers Since 1737” signature.
Bracelet, strap compatibility, and pricing
The watch comes on a brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet with a triple-link construction and butterfly clasp.
Owners can also fit the rubber straps from the Deep Raider Renaissance range, which gives the new model useful flexibility beyond the steel bracelet configuration.
The Favre Leuba Deep Raider Power Reserve joins the permanent collection and is priced at CHF 2,500.
For collectors drawn to vintage-inspired divers but wanting something more distinctive than a conventional date display, this is the most characterful Deep Raider in the current lineup.
