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.

Alpina

Alpina is a Swiss watch brand that was founded in 1883 in Geneva, Switzerland. The company was initially known for manufacturing high-quality movements and supplying them to other watchmakers. However, in 1901, Alpina began producing its own watches, and the brand quickly gained a reputation for its precision and durability.

Throughout the 20th century, Alpina continued to innovate and develop new technologies, such as the "Block Uhr" system, which allowed pilots to synchronize their watches with radio time signals. The brand also became known for its sports watches, which were designed for activities such as diving, skiing, and mountaineering.

Today, Alpina is part of the Frederique Constant Group, and the brand continues to produce high-quality Swiss-made watches that combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. Alpina's collections include a range of sports watches, as well as dress watches and classic timepieces. The brand is also committed to sustainability and has introduced eco-friendly materials and manufacturing processes in some of its models.
