Louis Erard Collaborates with GoS on the Latest Edition of Le Régulateur

In December 2021, Louis Erard and GoS Watches were brought together by Manuel Emch, the visionary behind Louis Erard's strategic revival and creative transformation. He found a kindred spirit in Patrik Sjögren, watchmaker and founder of the Swedish atelier GoS, renowned for its mastery of Damascus steel.

Together, they envisioned a timepiece that would seamlessly blend the essence of both Maisons: the technical precision and aesthetic refinement of the Swiss Jura, married to the artistry of a Swedish forge, where Damascus steel is meticulously crafted into mesmerizing patterns through an almost alchemical process.

Baltic, a French independent watch brand, has gained recognition for its vintage-inspired watches, characterized by elegant designs and exceptional craftsmanship offered at reasonable prices. Established in 2016 by the former photographer Etienne Malec, Baltic endeavors to present simple timepieces amidst the evolving realm of horology.

Now, the brand unveils the Baltic Prismic collection, inspired by geometric shapes and luminous refractions of the Prism, and the aesthetics of “cocktail” watches (ladies watches). This new collection offers four releases in a grained finished grade 5 titanium case, with stainless steel bezel, lugs and caseback. The case boasts a brushed, and polished finish, exuding both durability and refinement, measuring 36mm in diameter and 9.2mm in thickness. Protecting the dial is a double domed sapphire crystal with anti reflective coating.

Speaking of the dial, it represents the brand’s take on a modern dress timepiece, the dial is offered in green, salmon, purple, or blue-gray. Adorning the guilloché dial is a brushed section, embellished with applied indexes that are polished. Positioned at the 6 o'clock is a small seconds sub-dial featuring a textured surface, encircled by a brushed steel border. Time is elegantly indicated by dauphine hands, adding to the watch's allure.

The watch's caseback features a sapphire crystal, providing a clear view of the Peseux 7001 caliber, a mechanical movement crafted by the Swiss ETA manufacturer. This movement operates at a frequency of 21,600 vph (3Hz) and boasts a generous power reserve of 42 hours.

The Baltic Prismic offers a choice between a braided "mesh" stainless steel bracelet or a leather strap with a pin buckle. Both options feature a quick-release system, facilitating effortless customization and versatility. Each watch of this collection is priced at EUR 990 which is equivalent to AED 4,000 for the leather strap option, or EUR 1,050 which is equivalent to AED 4,200 for the steel mesh bracelet option.
