Louis Erard, a brand known for its love of numbers and symbolic details, unveils the 2300 Chronograph Sport collection—a limited-edition series that pays homage to the brand’s roots while looking towards the future.
The name “2300” is not just a collection title; it carries deep meaning. It represents the zip code of La Chaux-de-Fonds, the birthplace of Louis Erard, while also hinting at the exciting innovations that are set to shape the brand in the years ahead.
Less is More: Precision and Elegance
The 2300 Chronograph Sport epitomizes the “less is more” design philosophy, blending minimalist aesthetics with technical precision. Featuring a robust 44mm titanium Grade 5 case and a black ceramic bezel, the chronograph strikes a balance between sportiness and sophistication. The inclusion of a sapphire glass box enhances the durability and clarity of the dial, making it a timepiece designed for both functionality and style.
Powering this watch is the reliable Valjoux 7750 movement, known for its precision and dependability in chronographs. The watch also boasts FKM rubber straps for comfort and a titanium clasp system inspired by freeride bindings, allowing for precise adjustments to fit the wearer’s wrist perfectly. This innovative clasp ensures that the watch remains secure while maintaining an easy-to-adjust system.
Standout Display and Readability
A hallmark of Louis Erard’s craftsmanship is its focus on readability and unique displays, and the 2300 Chronograph Sport delivers just that. The design brings the chrono counters to the forefront, with a distinct vertical alignment that has become the brand’s signature. The 12H counter sits prominently at 6H, while the 30M counter takes its place at 12H, offering clear and intuitive timekeeping at a glance.
The chronograph comes in three distinct versions, each with its personality:
● Sleek Black: This version is elevated by a rainbow gradient minutes track, adding a splash of colour that contrasts beautifully with the black dial.
● Khaki-Orange: Vibrant khaki tones flow seamlessly into the strap and complement the orange accents on the counters and the minutes track.
● Blue-Yellow: The light blue and yellow design brings energy and brightness to the chronograph, with bold hues running from the strap to the hands and counters, emphasizing the first five minutes of the chronograph.
A Limited Edition for Collectors
In true Louis Erard fashion, exclusivity is key. Each of the three models in the 2300 Chronograph Sport collection is limited to just 99 pieces, ensuring that these watches remain highly coveted among collectors and enthusiasts.
With their cool vintage vibes, dynamic colour schemes, and Louis Erard’s signature vertical time reading, these watches are ready to set new standards in design and functionality.
