Explore Laventure

Laventure’s watches look familiar without pointing to a single obvious ancestor. Broad, cushion-shaped cases, deeply domed crystals and recessed dial markings draw on the vocabulary of older sports watches, but the proportions have their own character. Founded in Switzerland in 2017, the brand began with the Marine: a clean, nautical-minded three-hander whose substantial case surrounds a surprisingly restrained dial.

The Sous-Marine takes that design underwater, adding a rotating dive bezel and offering both steel and bronze cases. The bronze version gives the same architecture a different texture as its surface changes with wear. Large hands and generous luminous markings keep the display direct; there’s little on the dial that doesn’t help you read it.

With the Transatlantique, Laventure turned from diving to travel. A GMT hand and two-tone, 24-hour bezel bring another layer of information while preserving the family resemblance. Its colours and domed crystal soften the instrument-like layout, giving this travel watch a distinctly vintage cast.
