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.

Brushing

Brushing, also known as satin finishing, is a technique used to create a specific pattern resembling a fabric texture on the surface of watch components. It involves the use of a brush or abrasive material to create parallel and fine lines.


Typically, the brushing technique is applied to metal surfaces, such as stainless steel or titanium, although it can also be used on other materials like gold or platinum. It is commonly used on watch cases, bracelets, and dials to enhance their appearance and create a distinctive visual effect.

The brushing technique involves creating fine and evenly spaced lines that can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, depending on the desired effect. These lines give the surface a textured and satin-like finish, adding depth and visual interest to the watch.
