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.

Disc

A disc is a flat and thin component used in a watch mechanism to display the time or additional functions such as a calendar, moon phase, and other complications. It carries the indicators that are sequentially displayed through an aperture on the watch dial.


The disc is mounted on the central shaft of the watch and is connected to a precise mechanism of the watch movement, allowing it to rotate consistently with the advancement or change of functions. The watch disc is considered an important part of the watch design and contributes to the accurate and easy reading of the complications.
