CPTony Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 very interesting timepieces, they have been on my radar for a couple of years at least, I love the design of few of them and they have nice complications at a reasonable price. My fav is the Retrograde with power reserve : http://www.timeway.ch/popup_image.php?pID=1998 but the regoulatour is really fascinating: http://professionalwatches.com/assets_c/2009/02/1810_LouisErard_1931R%C3%87gulateurRDM_big-thumb-450x396-2284.jpg the new version of the moonphase came out last year: http://www.timeway.eu/2726-1866-thickbox/louis-erard-new-collection-1931-moonphase-2.jpg unofrtunately the retails prices went up significantly in the last few months (+/- 20%) but they are still good value for money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiman12 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I like Erard...great brand...my favorite has always been they asymmetrical model. Should have snapped it up when it was only $500 If I'm correct, the lead actor in the "Madmen" TV series was wearing it when the series first started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxman Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Im not familiar with the brand...but they look like a excellent value for what you get. I especially like this Heritage piece. reminds me a bit of a Ebel Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougar1 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Wow, I've always thought of them in a kind of Longines or Oris type market position, but they seem to have stepped up a gear lately. Maxman....that chrono you pictured looks damn sweet! Edited February 13, 2012 by cougar1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
