From Louis Erard, presenting the Excellence (ref. 85237AA21.BVA31), a contemporary classic shaped by careful watchmaking know-how. The exterior is thoughtfully executed: crafted in stainless steel and measuring 42 mm in diameter, defined by a round silhouette. The caseback is open, and the crystal is sapphire, delivering water resistance to 5000 meters. At a glance, the dial balances texture and clarity: a silver tone with matte finish, framed by mixed hour markers, and fir hands. At its heart beats a proven engine: the SW266-1 ND caliber. Initial production year: 2020. With considered ergonomics, it feels composed during extended wear. Brushed and polished elements play with light to emphasize crisp geometry. For buyers researching specifications and real-world impressions, this reference stands out for coherent design, dependable mechanics, and lasting relevance within modern horology.
