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.

Chronograph

Chronograph

Is a watch or a stop watch, used to measure time intervals with precision. It allows the user to start and stop the timing to record different time durations, which are displayed through dedicated indicators or a digital display.

A stopwatch or chronograph typically features additional buttons or a pusher on the watch case, which are used to control the timing functions. By pressing the start/stop button, the timing is initiated or paused, and the elapsed time is accurately displayed on the dedicated timing indicators.
