Le Régulateur Gravé Bleu, Louis Erard’s Tribute to the Sector Dial

Louis Erard presents its latest release, the "Le Régulateur Gravure Bleu," a watch that, as the company describes, embodies the concept of the "Napkin Strategy." This well-known business term refers to a simple, concise idea, often improvised, symbolizing its ability to be quickly sketched on a napkin.

Louis Erard introduces Le Régulateur Gravé as a permanent addition to its Noirmont Métiers d'Art line, reinterpreting the sector dial with intricate traditional engraving. By presenting this non-limited model, Louis Erard further solidifies its distinct identity while making its rare design more accessible to a wider range of enthusiasts.

Introducing New TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon with a White Dial

A limited edition inspired by the automobile races on frozen tracks of the European Alps Mountains

TAG Heuer has a long-standing association with motorsports, reflecting its commitment to precision and performance. The brand blends traditional craftsmanship with modern technology, resulting in timepieces that exude both elegance and sportiness. The Carrera collection, TAG Heuer's iconic line, features a range of models from time-only variants to complex chronographs. Notably, in 2016, the brand introduced the Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon. This year, the collection saw a stunning addition in teal green, and now it includes a beautiful white dial variant with blue accents.

The steel case retains the same specifications as previous models, measuring 42mm in diameter and 14.3mm in thickness. It showcases a blend of brushed and polished finishes, chronograph pushers positioned at 2 and 4 o'clock, and the iconic glassbox crystal enveloping the bezel. Additionally, it features a sapphire crystal caseback, and 100 meters of water resistance.

The white dial, inspired by automobile races on the frozen tracks of the Alps Mountains, boasts a circular-brushed finish and is adorned with snailed blue chronograph counters at the 3 o'clock small seconds sub-dial and the 9 o’clock 12-hour counter. The flange complements the colors of the sub-dials, while the Super-Luminova and rhodium-plated hands and the lacquered red central chronograph seconds hand provide a striking contrast to the overall aesthetic. The dial distinguishes itself with its 60-second tourbillon positioned at 6 o'clock.

The watch is powered by the Calibre TH20-09, an in-house movement based on the iconic Heuer 02T. This automatic column-wheel chronograph with a tourbillon is a COSC-certified, operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) and offering a power reserve of 65 hours. The watch comes with a blue leather strap with a steel folding clasp, it is limited to 50 pieces, and priced EUR 25,200, equivalent to AED 101,000.
