Louis Erard Unveils the Limited-Edition Gravée Main

Since 2021, Louis Erard has been redefining the boundaries of Métiers d’Art, from Grand Feu enamel and guilloché to wood marquetry, and soon, gold wire inlay. Now, Gravée Main opens a new chapter, paying tribute to one of the oldest crafts in watchmaking hand engraving.
Gravée Main represents a new milestone in Louis Erard’s Métiers d’Art series. This limited edition of 99 unique timepieces places hand engraving at center stage, with every metal element entirely engraved and finished by hand, a meticulous process that requires more than 50 hours of work. 

Vulcain

is a Swiss luxury watch brand that has been producing high-quality watches since 1858. The brand is known for its classic and elegant designs and its use of high-end materials.

One of Vulcain's most iconic watches is the "Cricket" model, which was introduced in 1947 and is famous for its distinctive alarm function. The alarm is activated by a small hammer that strikes a metal membrane, producing a loud and clear sound that can be heard even in noisy environments.

Vulcain watches are also known for their precise movements and accuracy. The brand uses advanced technology and innovative designs to create watches that are both reliable and aesthetically pleasing.

Over the years, Vulcain has collaborated with various institutions and organizations, including the U.S. Presidents, to create limited-edition watches that are highly coveted by collectors and enthusiasts.

Today, Vulcain continues to produce some of the most exceptional timepieces in the industry, incorporating modern technology with traditional watchmaking techniques to create watches that are both innovative and timeless.
