Alles über die Le Forban Sécurité Mer Rochelaise Sand-Grey steel bracelet (sand gray / brown)
About the brand new Le Forban Rochelaise Sand-Grey steel bracelet (sand gray / brown) from France!
New & original packaging. In Germany only available from me.
Inspired by the original watch designs of the 60s and 70s, the Rochelaise is a sophisticated harmony of curves. With its rotating inner bezel with stamped indices and its chrome-plated printed indices on the dial at the cardinal points, it impresses with its originality and subtlety. A diving watch that you can enjoy in all circumstances!
By the way: Le Forban Sécurité Mer makes its wristwatches in the workshops of the French watchmaker Christian Plantin. Here they are assembled, checked and adjusted. The price-performance ratio is also really excellent. For a mid-three-digit sum, you can hardly find comparable quality anywhere else. The perfect introduction, right?
The Rochelaise is a subtle mix of elements from our favorite watches of the 60s and 70s - which we wanted to pay tribute to.
• Case diameter: 39 mm
• Length: 46 mm lug to lug
• Case thickness: 11.40 mm
• 316L steel case
• Bidirectional pressed steel inner bezel
• Domed sapphire crystal
• Screw-down Crown
• Miyota 9039 automatic movement
• Silicone Tropic bracelet or steel bracelet with personalized clasp. Bandwidth: 20 mm.
Sand Grey: A warm gray with gold-plated accents.
Sea Green: A blue-green with deep accents that reflects the color of the waters of La Rochelle.
Its tortoise-style case is based on the rounded shapes of watches from the 70s and the rotating inner bezel is a throwback to the design of the "super compressors" the 60s. Staying true to the retro spirit, the Rochelaise pairs perfectly with our new finely etched bracelet made from steel. An original watch that completes the Le Forban collection and offers a completely new alternative to our early models.
REFINED AND COMFORTABLE - The Le Forban Rochelaise Sand-Grey on a steel bracelet
With the aim of achieving an ideal combination of appearance and comfort, we paid particular attention to the curves and finesse of the Rochelaise case.
Due to its balanced proportions and its low profile the Rochelaise a unisex watch that will look great on any wrist size, just like all the watches in the Le Forban range.
VERY EASY TO READ, EVEN AT NIGHT
Whether in daylight or at night, your watch remains readable by using Swiss Super-Luminova® C3, the brightest lumen on the market. Designed to remain legible in the deepest abyss, the luminous material will also prove useful to night owls navigating the shadows...
LOTS OF ATTENTION TO DETAIL
We chose a very specific manufacturing technique for the internal bezel. The indices are pressed into the metal, the resulting depth offering a unique aesthetic - a technique borrowed from the 60s.The surfaces of the indices are polished to complete the aesthetic effect and maximize legibility. And as a finishing touch, the Rochelaise is equipped with a red seconds hand, a reminder of its diving watch DNA.
ULTRA-RELIABLE AUTOMATIC MIYOTA movement
The Miyota 9039 has been in production since 2018 and is a high-quality, Japanese automatic movement. Due to the thinness of this movement, the Rochelaise case has a particularly low profile - less than 12 mm.
Power reserve: 42 hours
Seconds stops when the crown is pulled out.
ASYMMETRIC CROWNS AND EMBOSSED BACK
With its screw-down crown, the Rochelaise is designed to be water resistant up to 150 meters. Its second crown, which turns the inner bezel, has been intentionally placed in an asymmetrical position, giving an original but vintage-inspired charm. To highlight the caseback, we use the same embossing technique on all of our watches. For the Rochelaise we chose the motif of a sea rope as a tribute to the nearby Royal Ropemaking Factory of Rochefort.
The detailed test is already finished and will be online shortly! Stay tuned!
My conclusion:
"I was immediately impressed by the new Le Forban Sécurité Mer Rochelaise. After the extensive test, this was more than confirmed. The Rochelaise is significantly more elaborately designed than Malouine or Brestoise. The brand's increased standards are exemplary Compressor technology that has now found its way in and sets Rochelaise apart from the confusing diving watch market."

Le Forban Sécurité Mer
It is thanks to the southern French watch lover Jean Sebastien Coste that the traditional watch brand Le Forban Sécurité Mer was brought back to life in 2019. Since then, chronographs have been built again based on the old model and can certainly compete with the great Swiss models.
