Le Régulateur Louis Erard x Kudoke Forest Green Ref. 85237AA49.BVA178

About the model

The Louis Erard x Kudoke limited edition presents a minimalist design that focuses on the essentials – hours, minutes, and seconds. The edition is offered in four different models. Each of these models is a reinterpretation of the iconic Louis Erard regulator through the technical and aesthetic vision of Stefan Kudoke. This collaborative collection, inspired by Kudoke's characteristic symbol of infinity, reveals eight distinctive features of KUDOKE's "Handwerk" type dials. The dial includes a satin rhodium-plated ring, two sub-dials, and engraved "LOUIS ERARD" and "KUDOKE" inscriptions. At the 12 o'clock position, a prominent "Clous de Paris" pattern is featured, complemented by a ring with Roman numerals and the iconic infinity-shaped hour hand. All hands are made of blued steel. The lower part of the dial offers a grained matte effect, available in three limited edition colors: purple (78 pieces), forest green (100 pieces), and light blue (100 pieces). A rare collector's edition with a white mother-of-pearl dial (78 pieces) is also available.
