Louis Erard Unveils the Limited-Edition Gravée Main

Since 2021, Louis Erard has been redefining the boundaries of Métiers d’Art, from Grand Feu enamel and guilloché to wood marquetry, and soon, gold wire inlay. Now, Gravée Main opens a new chapter, paying tribute to one of the oldest crafts in watchmaking hand engraving.
Gravée Main represents a new milestone in Louis Erard’s Métiers d’Art series. This limited edition of 99 unique timepieces places hand engraving at center stage, with every metal element entirely engraved and finished by hand, a meticulous process that requires more than 50 hours of work.

Alain Silberstein

Alain Silberstein is a Swiss watchmaker started his career as an interior designer and moved into watchmaking in the 1980s. Silberstein watches are often described as works of art, and they appeal to collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate unconventional and innovative design.

Silberstein's designs were characterized by bold colors, geometric shapes, and playful elements such as smiling faces and cartoon characters.

Over the years, Silberstein continued to innovate and experiment with new materials and design elements. He introduced watches with dials made of colored glass, titanium cases, and unique complications such as jumping hours and retrograde minutes. Silberstein watches are known for their high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Unfortunately, Silberstein's watchmaking career came to an abrupt end in the early 2000s when his company went bankrupt due to financial difficulties. However, his watches remain highly sought after by collectors.
