SHOW ME YOUR DIAL, AND I’LL TELL YOU WHO YOU ARE! 

Inspired by the sector dials of the 1930s, Louis Erard brings it into the present, incorporating an age-old watchmaking technique: engraving. On a finely grained dial, engraving creates a subtle play of reliefs through a brilliant galvanic treatment. This technical and aesthetic precision highlights the key elements: time segmentation, optimized readability, concentric circles, and a railway track motif. The design, true to the "Neovintage" spirit, captures the essence of the past while asserting a unique modernity that is distinctly Louis Erard.
