Louis Erard plays the magician by transforming one of the earliest instruments of precision timekeeping into an ‘in-house’ complication driven by an exclusive module: the regulator with power reserve. Combined with a power-reserve display, this sophisticated mechanism elegantly expresses purity and refinement through a timepiece mingling a contemporary spirit with a classic aesthetic enabling it to find its way through successive eras while losing nothing of its appeal: Excellence Regulator with Power Reserve. Enthroned at the centre of the silver-toned guilloché dial, the regulator draws all eyes, while the hours and seconds tick by on two separate counters at 12 and 6 o’clock respectively. Perfecting the visual balance of the dial design, the retrograde power-reserve indicator appears at 9 o’clock, while a black leather strap sets the ideal finishing touch.
