Louis Erard × Vianney Halter Futur Antérieur: A Risk Worth Taking?
Futur Antérieur Gold × Vianney Halter
Louis Erard and Vianney Halter return with the Futur Antérieur, a distinctive creation inspired by the iconic Antiqua. Available in Gold and Silver, the watch introduces an entirely new 67-component stainless-steel case measuring just 8.85 mm thick, with two raised, riveted portholes framing separate indications.
Two automatic Sellita SW100 movements operate independently beneath the two dials, one displaying hours and minutes and the other central seconds. Each movement beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour and provides a minimum 38-hour power reserve, combining technical precision with sculptural design.
Limited to 178 pieces in each edition, the Futur Antérieur pairs intricate finishing with Vianney Halter’s signature aesthetic. Circular brushing, polished chamfers, blued steel hands and riveted bezels create a distinctive architectural character, while black or blue ostrich leather straps complete the Gold and Silver versions. Together, the two editions reinterpret the spirit of the Antiqua through a contemporary Louis Erard construction.
