A Piece Emphasizing Dial Design

The new "Excellence Regulator" from Louis Erard features a regulator mechanism that indicates the hours and minutes with separate hands, showcasing both mechanism and design. This model now uses the Cal. SW-200 movement from Sellita, paired with a module from Dubois Dépraz, renowned for its complications. The "hours" are displayed by a sub-dial at 12 o'clock, the "seconds" by another at 6 o'clock, and the "minutes" by the central hand, creating a true regulator display.

The dial is finished with a striped Côtes de Genève pattern. A plate with cut-outs for the outer minute track and the two sub-dials is secured with screws. The two sub-dials are adorned with fine, concentric guilloché decoration. This model truly expresses the inherent fascination of mechanical watchmaking.

A Chronograph Showcasing Meticulous Finishing

The "Excellence Chrono Date" is the chronograph model within the "Excellence" series. The craftsmanship of the entire dial is impeccable. It features slender Roman numeral indices, an elegant silver dial, and striking blued steel hands. Furthermore, the dial is adorned with a wave-like Côtes de Genève stripe pattern and guilloché decoration extending into the sub-dials, demonstrating exceptional attention to detail.

This watch is powered by the Cal. 7753, a variant of the Valjoux 7750 movement, which allows for a horizontally oriented sub-dial layout. If you're in search of a classic-style chronograph, this is a compelling option.
