LAB Peripheral

Launched in 2021, LAB Peripheral represents the most recent and most technical expression with which Perrelet continues to tell the story of the automatic winding principle invented by Abraham-Louis Perrelet: here the oscillating weight is no longer a central rotor or a turbine overlaid on the dial, but a peripheral rotor that runs around the outer edge of the movement, leaving the reading of the dial completely unobstructed at the center. The brand explicitly cites, as a historical reference for this architecture, the Dipteros concept developed in the 1990s by Perrelet itself.

The cushion-shaped case, with angular 42 mm flanks, houses dials built on multiple concentric levels, with different colors and textures that create a sense of depth while maintaining a more understated design compared to the Turbine. The collection's first releases introduced two distinct configurations: a more minimal three-hand-and-date setup, and one with a dual time zone and big date, designed for travelers who need to quickly read two different times.

Developed in-house with components produced in the Jura arc, the P-411 and P-421 calibers offer 42 hours of power reserve and are finished to be appreciated through the sapphire case back as well. With LAB Peripheral, Perrelet updates the same mechanical principle that drives the rest of the catalogue in a more contemporary and discreet key, demonstrating that the "visible rotor" can also be told without the Turbine's spectacular language.
