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.

Bicompax

Bicompax is a term used in watchmaking to describe a type of chronograph display layout that features two sub-dials symmetrically arranged on the dial. Typically, these sub-dials are located at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions on the dial, with the chronograph minute counter located at 3 o'clock and the running seconds sub-dial at 9 o'clock.

The term "bi" in bicompax refers to the fact that there are two sub-dials, while "compax" is short for "complex" or "complicated". The bicompax layout is a popular and classic design for chronographs, and is often used in vintage-inspired timepieces.
