Two years after the monstrous debut, Louis Erard teams up again with watchmaking prankster Konstantin Chaykin to unleash the Time Eater III—now in two cheeky flavors and very limited (178 pieces each). At its heart is the elegant Louis Erard Regulator platform, elevated with refined Grand Feu enamel, hand guilloché detailing, and a playful, teeth-baring monster dial.


Both variants feature a polished steel case set under a domed sapphire crystal, with a transparent caseback housing a Sellita SW266-1 automatic movement (4 Hz, 38-hour power reserve). But the real fun unfolds in the dial: a cyclopean eye at noon for hours, a toothy maw at 6 o’clock swallowing seconds, and a peripheral minutes track adorned with a devil-horned, flipping-finger counterweight.


Two versions tell two stories: the 39 mm red-track crouches on a grained calfskin strap, exclusive to Chaykin’s boutique; the 42 mm blue-track rocks a cringeworthy green leather strap—a Louis Erard exclusive. Each retails for $5,500. Merging serious watch craftsmanship with absurdist humor, the Time Eater III offers collectors a rare dose of levity in haute horlogerie.
