In a limited edition of 178 pieces comes the new Louis Erard x Konstantin Chaykin Le Régulateur ‘Dusk to Dawn’. Two watches in two different sizes and with two different case finishes. Inspired by the grotesque saw-mouthed cyclopes by the Slavic Likho legend. The watches can be purchased in a quadriptych box that includes four watches —the two previous iterations of this model and the new ones— or in a diptych box that includes both new watches.
The Dusk model features a 39 mm case in sand-blasted stainless steel with black PVD treatment, while the Dawn model features a 42 mm case in polished stainless steel. The first model in black PVD features a matte black dial with a black hour circle, a black lower plate with a sunray wave pattern, a black circular satin-finished hour flange with white transfers, and a shiny red seconds flange. The polished steel model features a matte black dial with a black hour circle, an anthracite lower plate with a sunray wave pattern, an anthracite circular satin-finished hour flange, and shiny red seconds flange.
Both watches are powered by the automatic regulator Sellita SW266-1 calibre with a power reserve of 38 hours. The élaboré grade movement is meticulously decorated, with a special open-worked oscillating weight with a black lacquered Louis Erard symbol. The black PVD model features a black-tinted display sapphire crystal on its case back, while the polished steel model features a red-tinted display sapphire crystal on its case back. Both watches are water resistant to 50 meters. Hands Shiny white hour disc with black pupil and red blood (transfers), matt black star-shaped seconds disc, shiny red hand-shaped minute hand
Both watches are delivered on a Black toad leather strap with red attachment points, red rabbit leather lining, sand-blasted stainless steel with black PVD treatment pin buckle, or polished stainless steel buckle. The straps are equipped with functional catch spring bars enabling the strap to be changed quickly.
