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.

Heart Rate Monitoring Watch

A watch that contains a device for measuring and monitoring heart rate. The measurement results are typically displayed digitally on the watch screen. The device operates through sensors located on the back of the watch that come into contact with the user's skin. This includes smartwatches and advanced sports watches.


Watches equipped with this function are used for various purposes, including exercise and fitness monitoring. Individuals who wish to monitor their heart rate during workouts or physical activities can use these watches to measure and continuously monitor their pulse.
