At Watches and Wonders Geneva 2026, Favre Leuba introduces the Deep Raider Power Reserve, a new mechanical interpretation of the Deep Raider collection originally revived in 2024.
The latest addition preserves the architectural silhouette and professional dive-watch functionality of the collection while introducing a dedicated power reserve display for the first time. Housed in a 40mm stainless steel case with 300 meters of water resistance, the Deep Raider Power Reserve further strengthens the brand’s modern sports watch portfolio.
Dial Design and Display Layout
The Deep Raider Power Reserve features a sunray-finished dial designed to create dynamic reflections across the surface under changing light conditions.
Two snailed sub-dials add contrast and dimensionality to the layout:
Small seconds display positioned at 9 o’clock
Power reserve indicator located at 6 o’clock
At 3 o’clock, the watch incorporates a vertically arched three-figure date aperture framed with a raised metallic surround for improved legibility.
Favre Leuba offers the Deep Raider Power Reserve in five dial variations:
White
Black
Green
Blue
Ice Blue
Each version maintains the balanced symmetry and robust aesthetic associated with the modern Deep Raider line.
Case Construction and Dive-Watch Functionality
The stainless steel case measures 40mm in diameter with a thickness of 12.59mm, preserving compact wearability while maintaining professional dive-watch proportions.
The construction includes:
Sapphire crystal
Screw-down knurled crown
Unidirectional rotating bezel
Ceramic bezel insert
Luminous dive marker at 12 o’clock
300 meters of water resistance
Favre Leuba integrates polished chamfers and tapered lugs into the brushed steel architecture, giving the case a more refined and contemporary appearance. The integrated stainless steel bracelet combines brushed and polished surfaces and includes a tool-free quick-change system. The Power Reserve model also remains compatible with all straps from the existing Deep Raider Renaissance collection.
Mechanical Movement and Power Reserve Display
Powering the Deep Raider Power Reserve is the automatic FLP01 caliber.
The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) and delivers approximately 41 hours of power reserve, which can be monitored directly through the dedicated indicator on the dial.
The addition of the power reserve complication introduces a more technical mechanical dimension to the Deep Raider series while preserving the collection’s core emphasis on clarity, durability, and everyday usability.
A Continuing Evolution of the Deep Raider Collection
The origins of the Deep Raider collection trace back to 1964 with the introduction of the Favre Leuba Deep Blue, one of the brand’s early professional dive watches.
In 2024, Favre Leuba revived the platform through two distinct approaches:
Deep Raider Revival
Deep Raider Renaissance
The collection expanded further in 2025 with the introduction of stone dials, including malachite and meteorite executions.
With the launch of the Deep Raider Power Reserve, Favre Leuba continues to broaden the technical scope of the collection while remaining rooted in the utilitarian philosophy established by the original Deep Blue.
Availability
The Deep Raider Power Reserve by Favre Leuba is available through the official website.
