Louis Erard Excellence Regulator 40

 

If you are looking for a classic timepiece with a little twist, the Louis Erard Excellence Regulator 40 could be the watch for you. It has a classic design with its white guilloché stamped dial and mix of Roman and Arabic numerals, but the way to read the time is a little different with the hours in a subdial at 12 o’clock and the minutes below in a second subdial at six o’clock. It also has a power reserve indicator at nine o’clock, in true horological style.
