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.

Decimal hour

Decimal hour

A system of timekeeping where the day is divided into 10 equal parts, each called a decimal hour. In this system, a decimal hour is further divided into 100 decimal minutes, and each decimal minute is divided into 100 decimal seconds. This system is based on the concept of decimalization, which aims to simplify and standardize units of measurement. The decimal hour system is not commonly used in everyday life and is primarily of historical and theoretical interest. It provides an alternative way to measure time, but it is not widely adopted or recognized compared to the standard 24-hour system based on hours, minutes, and seconds.
