In the 1940s and 50s, Lebois & Co created a surprising range of elegant small seconds watches — each defined by balance, character, and precision.

The Heritage Small Seconds collection brings that legacy into the present, with Swiss-made cases, COSC chronometer-certified movements, and classic proportions.

Pre-order now and receive two exclusive Founder’s Launch gifts: our French terry CHRONOMÈTRE LEBOIS & CO sweater, and a vintage-style Fixoflex bracelet alongside the leather strap.

Heritage Small Seconds
Baton

The Baton dial takes its name from the elongated, pointed indexes that lend the design its calm clarity. This model draws inspiration from two vintage Lebois watches from the 1930s — one with a soft salmon tone, another with a crisp cream-white dial. The latter was acquired directly from a respected collector, who entrusted us with this rare piece of history.

Just like its ancestors, the new Baton is built around balance. The sharply defined hour markers, paired with a recessed small seconds, give the dial a timeless rhythm. Understated yet sophisticated, this model reflects the purest form of dress watch design — slim, quiet, and enduring.

This watch is part of the initial 100-piece Founder’s Launch, available for pre-order until 28 November. It includes two exclusive gifts: a CHRONOMÈTRE LEBOIS & CO sweater (color and size selection to follow by email) and a Fixoflex stretch bracelet.

Estimated delivery: Spring 2026.

Specifications

Crafted from polished 316L stainless steel, the Heritage Small Seconds is modestly sized at 37.8 mm with a height of just 8.0 mm (10.5 mm including the domed sapphire). Inside beats the LC-350 automatic calibre, officially COSC-certified for chronometer precision, with a robust 56-hour power reserve.

A double-domed sapphire crystal, engraved see-through caseback, and discreet 45.5 mm lug-to-lug ensure comfort and character on any wrist. Water-resistant to 5 ATM (50 meters) and finished with a classic small seconds layout, this watch blends timeless design with modern performance, down to the last 28,800 VPH.

Heritage Small Seconds
Script

Script is where Lebois meets calligraphy. The idea was born at a Monaco auction in 2018, when a vintage white-dial chronograph with Breguet-style numerals caught our eye. That moment led to a design journey — a reinterpretation of typographic grace under the direction of designer Matthieu Allègre.

The result is a dial that feels both formal and poetic. The “Chronomètre” signature in delicate script draws attention to the watch’s certified precision, while the rest of the layout stays crisp and balanced. Script is for those who appreciate a softer, more lyrical form of mechanical mastery.

Officially Chronometer Certified

Each Heritage Small Seconds timepiece is certified by COSC — the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres — Switzerland’s independent institute for chronometer testing.

To earn this distinction, every movement must meet exacting standards of mechanical precision, tested over multiple days in five positions and three temperatures. It’s a certification few watches receive.

Several original Lebois & Co watches from the mid-century era proudly bore the word “Chronomètre” on their dials. We’ve brought that tradition back, not as decoration, but as a mark of verified performance.

Heritage Small Seconds
Numeral

The Numeral dial is bold and expressive, a canvas of clarity where each printed Arabic numeral plays its part. Its origin story is deeply personal: based on a watch sold at Christie’s in 2012, which inspired the revival of Lebois & Co. Tom van Wijlick, moved by the design, placed a photo of that watch on his refrigerator door; a daily reminder of a dream not yet realized.

Today, that inspiration lives on in the Numeral. Every dial is precisely printed and symmetrically laid out. The result is a confident, legible, and characterful take on the small seconds. Ideal for those who want their watch to speak with clarity and soul.
