From architectural marvels to playfully expressive wonders, Louis Vuitton continues to push the boundaries of High Watchmaking

- KIRAN PILLAY

Louis Vuitton has dedicated over 20 years to the pursuit of excellence in watchmaking, guided by the principles of tradition and innovation. Bringing together their most skilled artisans at La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton in Geneva, they are united in their pursuit of pushing the boundaries of craftsmanship, innovation and creativity. Among this year’s standout offerings are three notable novelties: the Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon Poinçon de Genève Sapphire Frank Gehry and the Tambour Slim Vivienne Jumping Hours in Sakura and Astronaut versions.

Stamped with the prestigious Poinçon de Genève seal—a testament to unparalleled quality and chronometric precision—the Tambour Moon Flying Tourbillon Poinçon de Genève Sapphire Frank Gehry is an architectural marvel in the form of a wearable translucent masterpiece. This high horology creation is the fruit of an extraordinary collaboration with the renowned Canadian-American architect and designer Frank Gehry, who is celebrated for iconic works such as the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, unveiled in 2014, and the Louis Vuitton Maison Seoul, inaugurated in 2019.
