The Louis Erard x Alain Silberstein Smile-Day Blue & Tourbillon Régulateur Blue

Louis Erard has spent recent years defining a very specific place for itself within contemporary Swiss watchmaking. Its strength lies in clarity of design and advanced mechanics. That balance has become central to Louis Erard’s identity.

That design awareness is especially visible in the brand’s collaborative work, where Louis Erard has shown a rare ability to absorb the language of an outside creative without losing its own. One of its most notable collaborations is with French designer Alain Silberstein, who has, over the years, developed a visual vocabulary that is instantly recognisable, one in which hands, markers, and displays become a composition of shapes as much as instruments of timekeeping.

Glossary

Eastern Pearl

A term used to describe a natural pearl that forms in nature without any human intervention or cultivation processes. These pearls are highly esteemed for their natural luster and rarity. Discovering a pearl with the characteristics of an "Eastern Pearl," which has fully developed on its own, is an exceptional occurrence. They are used in watchmaking for decorative purposes, adding beauty and luxury to the overall appearance of the watch.
