Founded in 1931, Louis Erard has built its modern reputation through a series of collaborations with some of contemporary independent watchmaking's most celebrated names. Rather than simply borrowing signatures or colours, these partnerships have given collectors access to the distinctive design language of master watchmakers at a fraction of the cost of their own creations. Few have been more successful, or more sought after, than the collaboration with Vianney Halter.

Widely regarded as one of the pioneers of modern independent watchmaking, Vianney Halter transformed the industry with the launch of the groundbreaking Antiqua in 1998, introducing a steampunk-inspired aesthetic unlike anything seen before. Produced as a limited edition of just 178 pieces and selling out within hours of its 2020 release, the Excellence Le Regulateur faithfully translates Halter's instantly recognisable design language into a highly wearable regulator wristwatch. From its layered architectural dial and distinctive typography to the riveted crown inspired by Halter's own creations, it offers collectors a rare opportunity to own a watch infused with the vision of one of watchmaking's true modern masters.
