Louis Erard’s Le Régulateur Gravé Noir: A Timeless Fusion of Tradition and Modern Craftsmanship

Louis Erard has unveiled its latest addition to the permanent collection, the Le Régulateur Gravé Noir. This striking timepiece, part of the Noirmont Métiers d’Art line, reinterprets the classic sector dial while showcasing traditional engraving techniques. By introducing this non-limited model, Louis Erard continues to assert its distinctive identity, one that blends bold creativity, horological heritage, and an unwavering independent spirit.

The sector dial, a signature of 1930s watchmaking, has been modernized by Louis Erard in an innovative and contemporary manner. The finely grained black dial features precise engraving, creating a subtle play of reliefs accentuated by a brilliant galvanic treatment.

This masterful execution enhances key design elements, including a segmented time display for optimized readability, concentric circles that emphasize meticulous craftsmanship, and a railway track motif that reinforces its neo-vintage aesthetic.

This balance of historical inspiration and modern refinement makes the watch truly unique.

Le Régulateur Gravé Noir comes in a 39 mm polished steel case with 5N rose-gilt details, giving it a refined and timeless appearance. The black fine-grained dial, minimalist time markers, and fir tree hands create an elegant and harmonious visual experience.

Staying true to its Régulateur design, the watch features hours in a subdial at noon, seconds at 6 o’clock, and minutes indicated by a central hand. The no-logo dial retains only the essential hour markers (12) and minute markers (15, 45), achieving an understated yet highly sophisticated aesthetic.

At the heart of Le Régulateur Gravé Noir is the Sellita SW266-1 movement, which provides a 38-hour power reserve. This Swiss-made movement ensures precision, durability, and reliability, making it an exceptional choice for watch enthusiasts who appreciate craftsmanship and performance.

The seamless integration of innovative design with traditional mechanics solidifies Louis Erard’s commitment to excellence in watchmaking.

The Louis Erard Le Régulateur Gravé Noir retails for SGD 4,680, including taxes.
