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 Bamford D-300 Ceramic Dive Watch

The British Brand’s First Dive Watch Collection

Bamford London introduces its first-ever dive watch collection, crafted from ceramic and available in four striking colors. This launch marks a significant step for the brand in the category of robust and practical timepieces.

Designed by George Bamford, the founder of the brand established in 2008, the D-300 collection reflects Bamford London’s evolution from customizing luxury watches to creating its own line of timepieces.

The Bamford D-300 is built to withstand the demands of deep-sea exploration. It features a ceramic case reinforced with an internal titanium structure, providing enhanced shock resistance while ensuring exceptional durability against scratches and corrosion. 

With a 42mm square-shaped case inspired by the renowned Bamford GMT, the watch boasts 300-meter water resistance, making it a reliable companion for aquatic adventures.

Combining functional elegance with everyday wearability, the D-300 is equipped with a unidirectional rotating bezel with deep grooves for improved grip, complementing the bold square-shaped case. The oversized titanium crown, protected by ceramic crown guards, highlights the thoughtful design, ensuring ease of use even underwater. The caseback, crafted from PVD-coated black titanium, features an exclusive Bamford D-300 engraving.

The dial is designed for optimal readability, featuring a sector layout with Super-LumiNova-coated hands and markers for excellent visibility in all lighting conditions. The Bamford D-300 is available in four vibrant color options: glossy white, matte black with blue accents, matte blue with yellow details, and matte green with orange highlights, combining eye-catching aesthetics with high legibility.

Powering the Bamford D-300 is a Swiss-made ETA 2824-2 automatic movement, operating at a 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) frequency and offering a 38-hour power reserve. 

Each timepiece is fitted with a comfortable rubber strap that matches the case color. Priced at GBP 1,500, which is equivalent to 6,850 AED.
