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 The New Frederique Constant X Watch Angels WorldTimer Manufacture

A limited edition with an updated design and new blue aesthetic

Frederique Constant is one of the few renowned watchmakers that gives their quality at an accessible price point. The brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and innovation has earned it a loyal following, and in its latest collaboration with Watch Angels, a unique platform that partners with designers and brands to create special timepieces, underscores its ability to push boundaries while staying true to its ethos, giving enthusiasts access to exceptional watches.

The new Watch Angels x Frederique Constant Worldtimer Manufacture, born from this partnership, is a testament to refined aesthetics and precision engineering. The case, crafted from stainless steel, measures 40.5mm in diameter instead of the usual 42mm; however, it is thicker than the typical 12.15mm, now measuring 13.4mm. It features a beautiful mix of brushed and polished finishes, with sapphire crystals on both sides.

The dial showcases a deep blue hue with a sunburst-finished center, encircled by matte-finished discs displaying the city names and 24-hour scale. Unlike the brand's Classic Worldtimer, this version omits the central world map and the date indicator, resulting in a cleaner, more refined aesthetic. Between the outer city ring and the central section, a rotating 24-hour disc displays a gold sun for daytime, while nighttime is marked by a crescent moon in a polished and sandblasted silver finish.

At its heart is Frederique Constant’s FC-710 automatic movement, operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) with a 38-hour power reserve. The movement features intricate perlage and Côtes de Genève finishing, visible through the exhibition caseback.

The watch is paired with a black leather strap featuring a steel folding buckle. It is limited to 718 pieces and priced at CHF 4,490, approximately AED 18,300.
