Louis Erard unveils 2300 Chronograph Sport trio

Louis Erard unveils the 2300 Chronograph Sport series, in Grade 5 titanium with black, blue and khaki dial. 99-piece limited editions. Price CHF3,333

Louis Erard has reinvented its sport chronograph collection, previously known as La Sportive, now rebranded as the 2300, with a fresh style update.

The name "2300" pays homage to the brand’s origins in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, referencing the local ZIP code.

Like its La Sportive predecessors, the new Louis Erard 2300 Chronograph Sport maintains the familiar 6-9-12 tricompax layout, but now visually resembles a bicompax with its two vertically aligned chronograph counters. 

The chronograph counters are vertically aligned, with the 30-minute counter at 12 o’clock and the 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock. At 9 o’clock, the small seconds are integrated into the main dial.

The 44 mm x 15 mm case is crafted from Grade 5 titanium and features a black ceramic bezel with a tachymeter scale to enhance its sporty aesthetic.

Three model variations have been presented at launch, each issued in a 99-piece limited edition and priced at CHF 3,333.

The 2300 Chronograph Sport Rainbow ref. 78119TS32.BDF02 is a sleek black version with a shining rainbow-gradient minutes track.

The 2300 Chronograph Sport Khaki ref. 78119TS39.BDF09 in khaki/orange and the 2300 Chronograph Sport Blue ref. 78119TS35.BDF05 in light blue/yellow feature vibrant tones that flow from the strap to the minute and hour counter hands, extending to the minute track, with an emphasis on the first 5 minutes of the chronograph.

A glassbox sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating protects the dials.

The transparent caseback reveals the Valjoux 7750 calibre, a reliable self-winding chronograph movement operating reliably at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour) with a power reserve of 48 hours. It features a special openworked oscillating weight adorned with a black lacquered Louis Erard symbol.

The new Louis Erard 2300 Chronograph Sport models are paired to FKM rubber straps with a titanium folding clasp, and quick-release spring bars for easy strap changes. The lug width is 22 mm. louiserard.com
