A Favre-Leuba Bivouac, reference 53203, is a rare and historically significant timepiece that stands as a true pioneer in the world of tool watches. First released in 1962, it has a 40mm stainless steel case and captures the spirit of high-altitude exploration and rugged adventure that defined an era of mountaineering and aviation breakthroughs.

The black and blue dial is uniquely designed. Bold hands, baton numerals, and a robust rotating bezel ensure legibility and functionality, even in the harshest environments. The black rubber strap and stainless steel clasp provide secure, comfortable wear, complementing the watch’s utilitarian character.

At the heart of this piece is a manual wind movement that powers both time and barometric functions—an impressive mechanical achievement that remains a collector's favourite.

Offered in good condition for its age and backed by a 12-month WLC warranty, this Bivouac is boxed, certified, and comes with authenticity paperwork. A true milestone in horological history, this watch is a must-have for collectors seeking innovation, rarity, and vintage adventure-ready charm in a single, iconic package.
