Louis Erard x Konstantin Chaykin

“Time Eater” Regulator Purple Cyclops

Reference: 85248AA89.BGA091 | Limited Edition: 178 Pieces

The Concept: A Mythological Vision

A grotesque, saw-mouthed cyclops comes to life in this limited-edition collaboration between Louis Erard and master watchmaker Konstantin Chaykin. The classic regulator complication is sacrificed to this “strange creature,” resulting in a dial that is as much a piece of kinetic art as it is a timepiece.

  • The Eye: The hour is displayed via a shiny white disc at 12 o’clock.

  • The Mouth: A matte black star-shaped seconds disc sits at 6 o’clock, creating the “saw-mouth” effect.

  • The Hand: A matte black hand-shaped minute hand points across the sunray wave pattern dial.
