As a seasoned gamer with an eye for aesthetics and a heart for vintage, I can’t help but be drawn to this stunning collaboration between Louis Erard and The Horophile. The Art-Deco inspired La Petite Seconde Metropolis, particularly the new verdant green variant, is a timepiece that resonates with my love for games set in the 1920s and 30s – the golden age of art deco design.
Swatch brand Louis Erard is collaborating once more with The Horophile to reveal another timepiece inspired by Art Deco design. Previously, they teamed up to produce three limited edition La Petite Seconde Metropolis watches, each featuring a distinct dial color. Now, they’re expanding this collection of vintage-style wristwatches by introducing a fresh green version of the La Petite Seconde Metropolis.
As a seasoned watch collector and enthusiast with over two decades of experience in the field, I appreciate the importance of maintaining consistency while still introducing innovative elements in watch design. The new variant, with its 39mm polished stainless steel case and circular satin-finish dial, strikes me as an excellent blend of tradition and modernity.
As someone who has spent years collecting and admiring timepieces, I find that this watch stands out from the crowd with its elegant and sophisticated design. The Arabic numerals applied as silver transfers perfectly maintain the watch’s color scheme, giving it a sleek and modern look. One of the highlights of this timepiece is the skeletonized stepped baton hour and minute hands, which are reminiscent of the iconic silhouette of the Empire State Building. This subtle reference to the vintage glamor of New York during the Art Deco movement adds a unique touch that sets it apart from other watches. Overall, I believe this watch is a must-have for anyone who appreciates fine timepieces and wants to add a touch of elegance to their collection.
As a gamer, I’m always on the move, and my watch keeps up with me. It’s fueled by an automatic winding mechanism, the Sellita SW261-1 caliber, giving me about 38 hours of non-stop gameplay. Peeking through the transparent back, you can see the intricate movement adorned with a micro-rotor embossed with the Louis Erard logo.
Priced at approximately $2,703 USD or 2,300 CHF, the collaboration between Louis Erard and The Horophile, named La Petite Seconde Metropolis, can be ordered directly from Louis Erard’s official website.
