Louis Erard Limited Edition Excellence Régulateur (Price, Pictures and Specifications)
Under this mother-of-pearl dial and gem-set bezel beats a high-end mechanical watch movement. A gem-set version of the Louis Erard icon in a limited edition of 50 pieces.
More than just a simple ladies’ watch, this beautiful, distinguished, distinctive timepiece features a hand-winding mechanical calibre among the most renowned of the Swiss industry: the famous Peseux 7001, topped with an exclusive Louis Erard complication, a regulator with a power reserve.
A complication that is actually universal, that points to the larger picture of watchmaking and chronometric precision. A complication with no defining gender, which is neither masculine nor feminine. A complication that offers the natural elegance of clearing the dial, leaving optimal breathing room and readability to all the indications: hours, minutes, seconds and the power reserve.
On the front, this understated model is equipped with sophisticated features that are traditionally reserved to very high-end pieces: a bezel set with 76 diamonds, a two-level dial elegantly composed of white mother-of-pearl openworked to reveal the opaline counters and power reserve; and blue lancine-shaped hands.
On the reverse side, a transparent case back reveals its mechanical charms: Côtes de Genève, blue screws and engraving.
And to crown the creation, this limited edition is mounted on an authentic alligator leather strap in a white hue to match the mother-of-pearl.
