Favre Leuba extends the Deep Raider line with 5 new power reserve models

The watches retain the aesthetics of the Deep Raider line
Favre Leuba debuted the Deep Raider collection in 2024. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of its legendary 1964 Deep Blue diver, the brand reimagined its iconic sea-faring timepiece line as the Favre Leuba Deep Raider collection. Now the brand has released five new models in the same line, introducing a power reserve indicator on the dial and calling it the Deep Raider Power Reserve.

The latest models are housed in a 40 mm stainless steel case and retain the silhouette of the line. Available in five dial variations – white, black, green, blue, and ice blue – with a sunray finish, its two sub-dials feature a snailed finish – small seconds counter at 9 o’clock, and the power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock. There is also a three-figure date aperture at 3 o’clock in a vertical arc. A screw-in crown  at 3 o’clock ensures the water resistance of 300 metres. The case is equipped with an unidirectional-rotating bezel with a ceramic insert and features a luminous pip at 12 o’clock.

Powering the watch is the automatic FLP01 caliber offering a power reserve of up to 41 hours. The watch comes dressed with an integrated stainless steel bracelet with alternating brushed and polished surfaces fastened to tapered lugs. The bracelet is equipped with a quick-change system that doesn’t require tools. Notably, all the straps of the Deep Raider Renaissance collection are compatible with the Power Reserve series. The steel caseback features an engraved medallion incorporating Favre Leuba’s historic emblem within a wave-inspired motif along with the inscription “Conquering Frontiers Since 1737.”

“Following the expansion of the Chief collection in 2025, 2026 marks a renewed focus on the Deep Raider,” comments Patrik Hoffmann, CEO, Favre Leuba. “Rooted in our 1964 Deep Blue, the collection represents our commitment to purposeful, performance-driven watchmaking. The Power Reserve strengthens the Deep Raider collection by adding mechanical depth while preserving the robustness and clarity that define the Deep Raider today.”
