DESCRIPTION
A contemporary interpretation of the original 1950s reference that inspired the Linéaire family. The warm champagne-silver dial of ref. 324.525 echoes the vintage watch discovered at vintage watch retailer Shuck the Oyster in Berlin and features refined vertical brushing that catches light in shifting gradients. The applied gold-toned Arabic numerals, constructed on mid-century linear geometry, float above the surface with subtle depth, while the blued syringe hands provide crisp contrast.
In true mid-century chronograph tradition, the dial includes a tachymeter scale (Base 1000) and a 30-minute counter marked with three-minute divisions, a period feature once used for timing long-distance telephone calls. These historically documented elements, described in The Main Types of Chronograph Explained by Their Dials (1951), reinforce the model’s deep archival grounding.
Paired with a rich blue strap, this reference embodies understated refinement and pays tribute to the elegance of Lebois & Cie’s mid-century chronographs.

Linéaire: The Return of Lebois & Cie
The Heritage Chronograph Linéaire marks the first modern return of the historical LEBOIS & CIE signature, a detail last seen on a rare 1950s reference. Named in French to honour its origins, Linéaire blends mid-century refinement with contemporary precision.
Characterised by its vertically brushed dial, gold-toned Arabic numerals built on linear geometry, and elegant syringe hands, Linéaire bridges past and present through a design language that is both familiar and freshly reinterpreted. A tribute to the era that shaped it, and a new chapter for Lebois & Cie.
