The Louis Erard x Konstantin Chaykin Unfrogettable watch has made a comeback, boasting a distinctive design that combines a titanium case with an expressive dial and an automatic movement. The watch's unique identity is inspired by the Princess Frog, a character from Konstantin Chaykin's Wristmons universe. The collaboration between Louis Erard and Konstantin Chaykin aims to create creative and accessible timepieces for watch enthusiasts.

The Unfrogettable watch features a titanium case with a diameter of 40mm and a thickness of 12.45mm, making it suitable for everyday wear. The case has a satin-finished surface and a polished bezel, giving it a refined look. The watch's crown is positioned at 12 o'clock and is shaped like a small tiara, paying homage to the Princess Frog. The watch also features a transparent sapphire crystal case back, allowing the wearer to see the automatic movement.

The dial of the Unfrogettable watch is inspired by Konstantin Chaykin's Wristmons and features two large eyes that indicate the hours and seconds. The hours are displayed at 9 o'clock, the seconds at 3 o'clock, and the minutes are shown on the periphery of the dial using a arrow-shaped hand. The watch is available in two versions: one with a turquoise dial and another with a brown dial. Both versions feature a unique display and decorative elements.

The Unfrogettable watch is powered by the Sellita SW266-1 automatic movement, which operates at a frequency of 28,800 alternations per hour. The movement provides a 38-hour power reserve, making it suitable for daily wear. The watch's movement is decorated with a oscillating weight featuring the Louis Erard logo, visible through the transparent case back.
