I've spent a lot of time with various timepieces, but the Louis Erard 2300 Sport Chronograph caught my attention. Unlike the brand's usual regulators and collaborations, this release offers a more traditional sports watch. However, upon closer inspection, you'll notice Louis Erard's signature touch.
The 2300 Sport Chronograph features a Valjoux 7750-powered movement and a large Grade 5 Titanium case. It also has a black ceramic bezel and a 6-9-12 layout with day and date indicators. But what sets it apart is the dial design.
Louis Erard takes a unique approach by emphasizing the chronograph function with a vertically stacked layout inspired by their regulators. The running seconds and day-date are still present, but the focus is on the chronograph.
There are three dial options available, each offering a distinct 1970s racing dial design. The black dial option is the most straightforward, while the blue and green options add a vibrant touch. Personally, I prefer the orange-accented "Khaki" green version.
All three versions of the limited edition Louis Erard 2300 Sport Chronograph come with a color-matched FKM rubber strap and a titanium buckle. They are priced at CHF 3,333 and are currently available for order.
If you're looking for a fresh take on sports watches, the Louis Erard 2300 Sport Chronograph is worth considering. With its unique dial layout and vintage-inspired design, it stands out from the crowd.
